Hi Marcel,
actually the convention is that if it is a return value, then we use a negative error value. If it is a parameter, we use the positive one. So the connection_lost change is wrong (it was wrong before though). Please fix this too.
Ok, that might be quite a huge patch though... it has been that way for so long... virtually every function will be impacted :-(

While reading the latest code, i noticed common/error.{c, h} is gone... There's a new one in src/, but with only one generic error handling routine. I have the feeling this is a big step backwards, as DBUS error names get duplicated into each service again and again, paving the way for un unmanageable level of error strings fragmentation :-( What do you guys think ?It is not a big step backwards since we are using libgdbus error functions now and there are more simpler. There is a problem with the strings returned for a specific error, but I don't really thing it is that big of a problem.
Ok i see the thing now. By that i guess that all error handling outside of g_dbus_create_error are on their way out ? I guess those ones should be replaced with g_dbus equivalents ? ./src/adapter.c:static DBusHandlerResult error_failed(DBusConnection *conn, ./src/adapter.c:static DBusHandlerResult error_connection_attempt_failed(DBusConnection *conn,
In the long term we might get btd_error_* or alike functions since then the plugins can use them. However right now every plugin has to handle its own errors.
