example-service and client have problem(s) ....reposting.

[Fred Messinger (fredm)]

Hi,

I found message/question in the archives that fully describes my problem.
But no one replied to him.

I'm on centos 5 with dbus-glib-070.   In short, the example-service and
example-client don't play well together....   Any thoughts?

Thanks and keep up the good work - it's great stuff.
Fred

Of the two example program-pairs in the dbus-glib-0.74
tarball found here:
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/DBusBindings

, only one seems to work.

Specifically, the example-server/example-client pair
appear broken. The example-server starts and waits
fine, but crashes when the example-client contacts it.

Here is the command line output from both programs:

example-server:
