So if poll() tells me that something happened on the fd for the server watch,
then I call
dbus_watch_handle(watch, flags);
What is flags then ?
The documentation says its similar to the POLLIN/POLLOUT etc. flags. So can I
just use the .revents field from struct pollfd ?
And what will the handler do then ?
(I did that now and I don't see any effect)

I don't understand what you mean.
Is it correct to call poll() on all the file descriptors ?
What should I do then ?
If I don't call dbus_connection_dispatch(), who will call this status
callback ?
Can you please elaborate a bit ?
(I tried to do that but the callback is not called)
Thanks
Alex
