/**
* @defgroup DBus D-Bus low-level public API
* @brief The low-level public API of the D-Bus library
*
* libdbus provides a low-level C API intended primarily for use by
* bindings to specific object systems and languages. D-Bus is most
* convenient when used with the GLib bindings, Python bindings, Qt
* bindings, Mono bindings, and so forth. This low-level API has a
* lot of complexity useful only for bindings.

/**
* @mainpage
*
* This manual documents the <em>low-level</em> D-Bus C API. <b>If you use
* this low-level API directly, you're signing up for some pain.</b>
*
* Caveats aside, you might get started learning the low-level API by reading
* about @ref DBusConnection and @ref DBusMessage.
*
* There are several other places to look for D-Bus information, such
* as the tutorial and the specification; those can be found at <a
* href="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus">the D-Bus
* website</a>. If you're interested in a sysadmin or package
* maintainer's perspective on the dbus-daemon itself and its
* configuration, be sure to check out the man pages as well.
*
* The low-level API documented in this manual deliberately lacks
* most convenience functions - those are left up to higher-level libraries
* based on frameworks such as GLib, Qt, Python, Mono, Java,
* etc. These higher-level libraries (often called "D-Bus bindings")
* have features such as object systems and main loops that allow a
* <em>much</em> more convenient API.
*
* The low-level API also contains plenty of clutter to support
* integration with arbitrary object systems, languages, main loops,
* and so forth. These features add a lot of noise to the API that you
* probably don't care about unless you're coding a binding.
*
* This manual also contains docs for @ref DBusInternals "D-Bus internals",
* so you can use it to get oriented to the D-Bus source code if you're
* interested in patching the code. You should also read the
* file HACKING which comes with the source code if you plan to contribute to
* D-Bus.
*
* As you read the code, you can identify internal D-Bus functions
* because they start with an underscore ('_') character. Also, any
* identifier or macro that lacks a DBus, dbus_, or DBUS_ namepace
* prefix is internal, with a couple of exceptions such as #NULL,
* #TRUE, and #FALSE.
