Add argument path matching support. Bug #11066.
2007-09-20 Ryan Lortie <desrt@desrt.ca>
* dbus/signals.c (struct DBusMatchRule, bus_match_rule_new,
bus_match_rule_set_arg, bus_match_rule_parse_arg_match,
match_rule_matches): Add support for parsing and matching on
arg0path='/some/path' type rules.
* dbus/signals.h (bus_match_rule_set_arg): change to take const
DBusString instead of const char * for the string to match against.
* dbus/dbus-bus.c: add a quick note to dbus_bus_add_match
documentation about the path matching.
* doc/dbus-specification.xml: add a more detailed description of the
changes here.
