NAME

       Net::DBus::Dumper - Stringify Net::DBus objects suitable for printing

SYNOPSIS

	 use Net::DBus::Dumper;

	 use Net::DBus;

	 # Dump out info about the bus
	 my $bus = Net::DBus->find;
	 print dbus_dump($bus);

	 # Dump out info about a service
	 my $service = $bus->get_service("org.freedesktop.DBus");
	 print dbus_dump($service);

	 # Dump out info about an object
	 my $object = $service->get_object("/org/freedesktop/DBus");
	 print dbus_dump($object);

DESCRIPTION

       This module serves as a debugging aid, providing a means to stringify a DBus related object in a form suitable for printing out. It can
       stringify any of the Net::DBus:* objects, generating the following information for each

       Net::DBus
	   A list of services registered with the bus

       Net::DBus::Service =item Net::DBus::RemoteService
	   The service name

       Net::DBus::Object =item Net::DBus::RemoteObject
	   The list of all exported methods, and signals, along with their parameter and return types.

METHODS

       my @data = dbus_dump($object);
	   Generates a stringified representation of an object. The object passed in as the parameter must be an instance of one of Net::DBus,
	   Net::DBus::RemoteService, Net::DBus::Service, Net::DBus::RemoteObject, Net::DBus::Object. The stringified representation will be
	   returned as a list of strings, with newlines in appropriate places, such that it can be passed string to the "print" method.

BUGS

       It should print out a list of object paths registered against a service, but this only currently works for service implemented in Perl
