Hi all,
I'm taking first steps learning how to use DBus in a gnome shell extension.
I've hit a stumbling block - how do I get the result of a remote
method immediately?
Something like:
let value = dbusProxy.<methodname>Remote(/* arguments ... */,
function (result) { ???? how to return it???? });
In the usage above, I want the `result` in the callback to be assigned
to value so that if my next line of code is (say)
log(value);
this will be up-to-date.
Otherwise, I could do something like:
let value;
dbusProxy.<methodname>Remote(/* arguments ... */, function
(result) { value = result; });
log(value);
but when I do this, 'value' is not up to date (until the callback
completes), so I can't rely on the above code if I want to use 'value'
straight away.
Is there some way around this?
