Hi all,
I've bumped into inconsistency relating D-BUS broadcast messages. This is
basically the same problem saroj panda already noticed and reported in mail
dated Fri Mar 19 21:32:37 2004.
The thing is that D-BUS specification says all broadcast messages should be
sent to special service org.freedesktop.DBus.Broadcast. However, quick
grepping of D-BUS sources would indicate that this service receives no
special treatment. Instead messages with no destination service are treated
as broadcast messages.
So the current code and specification on the web are in contradiction. It'd
be good to have the specs updated or the code fixed.
Cheers,
Timo
