// Newer D-Bus services implement the Object Manager interface to inform other
// clients about the objects they export, the properties of those objects, and
// notification of changes in the set of available objects:
//     http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html
//       #standard-interfaces-objectmanager
//
// This interface is very closely tied to the Properties interface, and uses
// even more levels of nested dictionaries and variants. In addition to
// simplifying implementation, since there tends to be a single object manager
// per service, spanning the complete set of objects an interfaces available,
// the classes implemented here make dealing with this interface simpler.
//
// Except where noted, use of this class replaces the need for the code
// documented in dbus/property.h
//
// Client implementation classes should begin by deriving from the
// dbus::ObjectManager::Interface class, and defining a Properties structure as
// documented in dbus/property.h.
//
// Example:
//   class ExampleClient : public dbus::ObjectManager::Interface {
//    public:
//     struct Properties : public dbus::PropertySet {
//       dbus::Property<std::string> name;
//       dbus::Property<uint16> version;
//       dbus::Property<dbus::ObjectPath> parent;
//       dbus::Property<std::vector<std::string> > children;
//
//       Properties(dbus::ObjectProxy* object_proxy,
//                  const PropertyChangedCallback callback)
//           : dbus::PropertySet(object_proxy, kExampleInterface, callback) {
//         RegisterProperty("Name", &name);
//         RegisterProperty("Version", &version);
//         RegisterProperty("Parent", &parent);
//         RegisterProperty("Children", &children);
//       }
//       virtual ~Properties() {}
//     };
//
// The link between the implementation class and the object manager is set up
// in the constructor and removed in the destructor; the class should maintain
// a pointer to its object manager for use in other methods and establish
// itself as the implementation class for its interface.
//
// Example:
//   explicit ExampleClient::ExampleClient(dbus::Bus* bus)
//       : bus_(bus),
//         weak_ptr_factory_(this) {
//     object_manager_ = bus_->GetObjectManager(kServiceName, kManagerPath);
//     object_manager_->RegisterInterface(kInterface, this);
//   }
//
//   virtual ExampleClient::~ExampleClient() {
//     object_manager_->UnregisterInterface(kInterface);
//   }
//
// The D-Bus thread manager takes care of issuing the necessary call to
// GetManagedObjects() after the implementation classes have been set up.
//
// The object manager interface class has one abstract method that must be
// implemented by the class to create Properties structures on demand. As well
// as implementing this, you will want to implement a public GetProperties()
// method.
//
// Example:
//   dbus::PropertySet* CreateProperties(dbus::ObjectProxy* object_proxy,
//                                       const std::string& interface_name)
//       OVERRIDE {
//     Properties* properties = new Properties(
//           object_proxy, interface_name,
//           base::Bind(&PropertyChanged,
//                      weak_ptr_factory_.GetWeakPtr(),
//                      object_path));
//     return static_cast<dbus::PropertySet*>(properties);
//   }
//
//   Properties* GetProperties(const dbus::ObjectPath& object_path) {
//     return static_cast<Properties*>(
//         object_manager_->GetProperties(object_path, kInterface));
//   }
//
// Note that unlike classes that only use dbus/property.h there is no need
// to connect signals or obtain the initial values of properties. The object
// manager class handles that for you.
//
// PropertyChanged is a method of your own to notify your observers of a change
// in your properties, either as a result of a signal from the Properties
// interface or from the Object Manager interface. You may also wish to
// implement the optional ObjectAdded and ObjectRemoved methods of the class
// to likewise notify observers.
//
// When your class needs an object proxy for a given object path, it may
// obtain it from the object manager. Unlike the equivalent method on the bus
// this will return NULL if the object is not known.
//
//   object_proxy = object_manager_->GetObjectProxy(object_path);
//   if (object_proxy) {
//     ...
//   }
//
// There is no need for code using your implementation class to be aware of the
// use of object manager behind the scenes, the rules for updating properties
// documented in dbus/property.h still apply.
