dbus cleanup question

[Macartney, Geoff]

Aha!

I'm talking through my hat - I've actually called dbus_bus_get twice; my
library is composed of two bits, one to listen for events on dbus, which
calls dbus_bus_get; and another bit to send messages to dbus, which can
be used without the listening side of things being invoked (it does a
send, then a flush). This second bit also does dbus_bus_get, in order to
get a handle to the bus so it can send the event.

Is this my problem? Do I need to arrange so that I only call the
dbus_bus_get once?

Cheers
Geoff

Hi John

I just call dbus_bus_get once; and I'm using dbus-1.0.1-12.fc6.

How many times do you call dbus_bus_get?  And what version of D-Bus are
you using.  Some older versions did not handle shutdown properly under
certain conditions.
