[systemd-devel] from dbus , how do i find if app went down

[Pradeepa Kumar]

I am subscribing to PropertiesChanged signal and caching service and its
 substate in client side.
But i noticed that when service is started , i dont get PropertiesChanged
signal.
how can i update my local client side cache in this case ?
my goal is to let my upper layer know when app goes down (running to other
substate value)
