This is likely not - parseable by any existing tools, is not entirely up-to-date, and may - by removed in a future release. - - registryd - - The registry daemon code. The registry daemon - keeps a register of accessible applications and presents - this to clients (ATs). - It is also responsible for delivering device events. - - dbind - - Library to ease making D-Bus method calls, contains - marshalling code to convert function arguments - and a provided D-Bus signature into a D-Bus message. - - Used by libatspi. - - atspi - - C library for use by ATs. Wraps the various D-Bus calls, provides - an interface for listening to events, and caches some information about - accessible objects. Also contains some functions used by at-spi2-atk. - - bus - - A server that sits on the session bus and provides an interface - allowing applications to find the accessibility bus daemon, launching - it as needed. The accessibility bus is separate from the session bus - because it may in fact span user sessions if a user, for instance, - runs an application that escalates to run as root. The accessibility - bus is thus tied to the X session rather than the D-Bus session. - - doc - - Contains infrastructure for creating libatspi documentation. - - test - - Contains files that may be useful for testing AT-SPI. - - m4 - - Some macros used for building the module. - - po - - Infrastructure used for translation. |
