Re: Question about D-Bus and cygrunsrv

Just as a quick follow-up, I've put the two code samples up on github: https://github.com/mikebrady/dbus-example -- this uses the regular dbus1 library and works on Linux and Cygwin. https://github.com/mikebrady/gdbus-example

Re: Question about D-Bus and cygrunsrv

Hello again. I've returned to this continuing problem and come up with a short piece of code which seems to exemplify this problem. It works in Linux and doesn't work in Cygwin. Basically, the code is an attempt to get a "name" on the D-Bus "system bus" which could be used to provide a system-

Re: Question about D-Bus and cygrunsrv

Thanks for the comments. I’ll certainly check the security side of things. What is a bit intriguing is that another application — the Avahi daemon (see http://avahi.org) that provides ZeroConf / Bonjour service discovery services — also uses the D-Bus system bus and it works fine as a cygrunsrv-

Hello again. Further to the rather vague email below, here is a link to what I did to install Shairport Sync on a fresh Cygwin installation: https://github.com/mikebrady/shairport-sync/blob/development/CYGWIN.md Regards M

Question about D-Bus and cygrunsrv

Hi there. I'm trying to set up Shairport Sync as a CYGWIN service, and I'm trying to use cygrunsrv. Briefly, I can get everything to work properly except the D-Bus interface -- when shairport-sync is installed as a service, it can't "own" a well-known name on the "system" D-Bus. I built a conf
