If you're talking about the libdbus-1 low-level API, you install a message 
filter and then you get all messages. You need to inspect the incoming message 
type, object path and other markers that your code expects to match. If it 
matches, then handle.

Either way, return DBUS_HANDLER_RESULT_NOT_YET_HANDLED.
