This patch fixes cases where the 'opts' table passed by the user is modified, making the external table unable to be reused in some cases. This was causing problems e.g. when dealing with properties, as the user was having a predefined dbus options table, as the "interface" key was changed internally to 'org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties' without being changed back on return.
"append_arg" was broken for some nested types like "a{sa{sv}}" on the
ldbus backend. This reimplements append_arg, fixing the bugs.
On the ldbus backend the function dbus.new_variant has been added.
This allows overriding the variant type autodetection for types not
expressable as arguments on the LUA type system, e.g. 'o', which gets
translated to string.
Note that this function gets available as dbus.raw.new_variant
Example usage:
local variant = dbus.raw.new_variant
myvariant = {
'v',
variant('aa{sv}', {
{ k1 = 'v1' }, --val is string variant (autodetected)
{ k2 = variant ('o', '/some/dbus/path')}
})
}
on the ldbus backend "iter_args" was completely broken for complex
types, calling a function returning "a{sa{sv}}" like e.g.
"org.freedesktop.NetworkmManager.Settings.Connection.GetSettings"
failed completely.
This patch reimplements "iter_args" correctly.
