Especially I am confused by the loop and how to set it up in a way so that I don't have to have more or less a dedicated process per Interface vended. For instance I have a process now that handles quite a bit with five or so threading.Threads of its own. It currently exports some methods using multi-threaded XMLRPC server. I would like to export those using dbus.Object instead but without messing up my other threads. I would also like to replace a thread listening on a datagram socket with dbus client in same process to that other process that both sends messages and responds to signals from said other process (another dbus loop usage). I tried subclassing the main class and playing with gobject.init_threads and gobject's loop context to do iteration in a separate thread. I set up the other loop, via dbus.mainloop.glib.DBusGMainLoop(set_as_default=True) as well as per many samples. I still get complaints that dbus doesn't know what the default loop is. This is rather confusing.</p>

It is very odd that you have to make one call that actually produces a dbus.mainloop.NativeMainLoop then make another call that produces a glib.MainLoop. It is enough to make one quite loopy. :)</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; ">
So what the heck is all of this for? Then to add to fun I have to do gobject.init_threads() just to keep everything from locking up (other threading threads especially) apparently. More opaque and unexplained mystery. And to top that off I see there is another possible threading initialization in the mix, dbus.glib.threads_init. I find several different variants online, none of which seem to quite work for my situation.</p>

What I want to do and want the simplest path to accomplishing: Expose multiple dbus objects and interfaces from a process that is already doing multiple things. I don't want and cannot live with one process per Interface implementation as many examples show. This needs to be perfectly content with any other threading.Thread stuff in the process. I would like to end up with the minimal number of new threads to handle dbus loop stuff. Ideally I would love to wrap this up about as simply as starting an XMLRPCService. What do I need? Note, I am in an embedded debian environment and I am not running Qt.</p>

Any help or a clear example that I am not likely to have already found after many hours of google searching would be very much appreciated.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; ">
