Hello,

I have a problem with dbus_connection_borrow_message and hope you could help
me.

I had a code that did this:
  dbus_connection_read_write(Conn, 0);
  DBusMessage *pMsg = dbus_connection_pop_message(Conn);

This worked well, but I have the problem that sometimes the pMsg that I get
is not a signal and when I pop it from the queue I get a timeout from my
other thread that is waiting for this messages that he never gets because
its not there anymore. So now I thought I first look at the signal to
confirm this signal is for me.

I tried



  dbus_connection_read_write(Conn, 0);
  pMsg = dbus_connection_borrow_message(Conn);
  if (pMsg != NULL)
  {
      if (dbus_message_is_signal(pMsg, iface, signal_name))
      {
          dbus_connection_steal_borrowed_message (Conn, pMsg);
          //do something with the msg
          dbus_message_unref(pMsg);
      }
      else
      {
          dbus_connection_return_message(Conn, pMsg);
      }
   }
But now I never get signals.
What Am I doing wrong?

Thanks for the help.
