<pre wrap="">Let me be clear: you CANNOT use threads with your design. And by
"you", I mean both your code and the user's code that uses your API.

<pre wrap="">First you say I’m going to need threads, next you say I “CANNOT” use
threads.

<pre wrap="">the point that everyone makes is that you need to use the same thread for sending and receiving
messages that created the DBus connection. Therefore you need to make sure that the dispatching is
done in the same thread that established the DBus connection.
What options (coroutines, threads) you supply to the users of your library is totally up to yourself! <span class="moz-smiley-s1" title=":)"></span>
