D-Bus Explorer is a GTK+ application, written in C#, which use NDesk’s managed D-Bus library (http://www.ndesk.org/DBusSharp) to display the API of D-Bus services. In summary, it’s a clone of dbus-viewer with a GTK+ interface.

Current features :
   * Can show the methods, signals and properties of any D-Bus service.
   * Description of each member prototype with, both, a standard and a C#-ish syntax (suitable for copy&paste in source code).
   * A clean GTK+ user interface.
   * Possibility to search/sort the displayed API.
   * Bus selection (session, system or user-defined).

Planned features :
   * Ability to invoke interface's members and see the result.
   * A Monitor dialog to visualize D-Bus activity.
   * Language-customizable prototypes (instead of only the current C#-ish representation).
   * Automatic generation of boilerplate code (like automagically creating the necessary interfaces with managed D-Bus).
