<title>Description</title>

<para><function>sd_bus_message_get_cookie()</function> returns the

transaction cookie of a message. The cookie uniquely identifies a

message within each bus peer, but is not globally unique. It is

assigned when a message is sent.</para>

<para><function>sd_bus_message_get_reply_cookie()</function>

returns the transaction cookie of the message the specified

message is a response to. When a reply message is generated for a

method call message, its cookie is copied over into this field.

Note that while every message that is transferred is identified by

a cookie, only response messages carry a reply cookie

field.</para>

<para>Both functions take a message object as first parameter and

a place to store the 64-bit cookie in.</para>

</refsect1>

<refsect1>

<title>Return Value</title>

<para>On success, these calls return 0 or a positive integer. On

failure, these calls return a negative errno-style error

code.</para>

<para>On success, the cookie/reply cookie is returned in the

specified 64-bit unsigned integer variable.</para>

</refsect1>

<refsect1>

<title>Errors</title>

<para>Returned errors may indicate the following problems:</para>

<variablelist>

<varlistentry>

<term><constant>-EINVAL</constant></term>

<listitem><para>A specified parameter

is invalid.</para></listitem>

</varlistentry>

<varlistentry>

<term><constant>-ENODATA</constant></term>

<listitem><para>No cookie has been assigned to this message.

This either indicates that the message has not been sent yet

and hence has no cookie assigned, or that the message is not a

method response message and hence carries a reply cookie

field.</para></listitem>
