@chapter GNUstep DBusKit Framework 0.1.1

This is the first maintenance release of the 0.1 release series of DBusKit, 
the GNUstep D-Bus bindings framework. The framework allows Objective-C 
applications to access the D-Bus inter-process communication system.

gnustep-base >= 1.24.0.

@section How to build it

@samp{INSTALL} file in the framework source.


@section What is it good for?
The DBusKit framework offers tight integration of D-Bus services into
Objective-C applications. It handles all low-level details of
communication with D-Bus daemons and the services connected to them and
exposes an interface similar to Distributed Objects to make it easy for
Objective-C programmers to access D-Bus services. Highlights of the
0.1 series include:

@itemize @bullet
@item Distributed Objects-like API for exchanging messages with D-Bus
services.
@item A notification center class for watching signals emitted by D-Bus
services.
@item @samp{dk_make_interface} tool to generate Objective-C protocol
declarations from D-Bus interface files.
@end itemize
