dbus 1.0.1-2ubuntu1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu feisty
D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between
applications. Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets
and CORBA in terms of complexity.
.
D-Bus supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus
decreasing latency), authentication, and more. It is designed to be
low-overhead; messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using
XML. D-Bus also supports a method call mapping for its messages, but
it is not required; this makes using the system quite simple.
.
D-Bus is still under heavy development, but is expected to be widely
used. It comes with several interfaces, including GLib. See the
description of dbus-glib-1 for more information about those.
.
This package contains the D-Bus daemon; the client-side library can
be found in the libdbus-1-3 package, as it is no longer contained in
this package.
