Not yet, dbus-binding-tool has these feature, for the my application, 
asynchronous call is mandatory. So either I modified dbusxml2cpp to support 
asynchronous call or I dropped Qt on the client side use in favor of glib 
binding. since I prefer Qt over glib, I'll go for the first solution.

Why ? Could you comment with a valid reason ?
Do you know a project that uses dbus asynchronous call ? So far, google found 
only one library that has one occurrence of the annotation 
org.freedesktop.DBus.GLib.Async, then looking at the code shows they misused 
this keyword, indeed, the notify_daemon_notify_handler is a *synchronous* 
call, indeed, dbus_g_method_returns is called inside 
notify_daemon_notify_handler !
So far, no one is really using the asynchronous annotation.

You missed the whole point, I don't want to write hand written code when a 
tool can do it for me in a better and faster way, and without error. The idea 
is to use dbusxml2cpp to generate callWithCallback calls automatically.
