# sysutils/dbus - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Message bus system

    D-BUS is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications.
    Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in terms
    of complexity.

    D-BUS supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus decreasing
    latency), authentication, and more.  It is designed to be low-overhead;
    messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using XML.  D-BUS also
    supports a method call mapping for its messages, but it is not required;
    this makes using the system quite simple.

    This package provides the D-BUS core library and daemon, as well as
    some utilities that complement it.
