</a></h2><p>The functions
23 <code class=
"function">sd_bus_message_append_string_memfd
</code> and
24 <code class=
"function">sd_bus_message_append_string_iovec
</code> can be
25 used to append a single string (item of type
"<code class="literal
">s</code>")
26 to message
<em class=
"parameter"><code>m
</code></em>.
</p><p>In case of
27 <code class=
"function">sd_bus_message_append_string_memfd
</code>, the
28 contents of
<em class=
"parameter"><code>memfd
</code></em> are the string. They must
29 satisfy the same constraints as described for the
30 "<code class="literal
">s</code>" type in
31 <a href=
"sd_bus_message_append_basic.html"><span class=
"citerefentry"><span class=
"refentrytitle">sd_bus_message_append_basic
</span>(
3)
</span></a>.
</p><p>In case of
32 <code class=
"function">sd_bus_message_append_string_iovec
</code>, the
33 payload of
<em class=
"parameter"><code>iov
</code></em> is the string. It must
34 satisfy the same constraints as described for the
35 "<code class="literal
">s</code>" type in
36 <a href=
"sd_bus_message_append_basic.html"><span class=
"citerefentry"><span class=
"refentrytitle">sd_bus_message_append_basic
</span>(
3)
</span></a>.
</p><p>The
<em class=
"parameter"><code>iov
</code></em> argument must point to
37 <em class=
"parameter"><code>n
</code></em> <span class=
"structname">struct iovec
</span>
38 structures. Each structure may have the
39 <span class=
"structname">iov_base
</span> field set, in which case the
40 memory pointed to will be copied into the message, or unset, in
41 which case a block of spaces (ASCII
32) of length
42 <span class=
"structname">iov_len
</span> will be inserted. The
43 memory pointed at by
<em class=
"parameter"><code>iov
</code></em> may be changed
44 after this call.
</p><p>The
45 <code class=
"function">sd_bus_message_append_string_space
</code> function appends
46 space for a string to message
<em class=
"parameter"><code>m
</code></em>. It behaves
47 similar to
<code class=
"function">sd_bus_message_append_basic
</code> with
48 type
"<code class="literal
">s</code>", but instead of copying a string into
49 the message, it returns a pointer to the destination area to
50 the caller in pointer
<em class=
"parameter"><code>p
</code></em>. Space for the string
51 of length
<em class=
"parameter"><code>size
</code></em> plus the terminating
52 <code class=
"constant">NUL
</code> is allocated.
