/**
 * @defgroup DBusErrors Error reporting
 * @ingroup  DBus
 * @brief Error reporting
 *
 * Types and functions related to reporting errors.
 *
 *
 * In essence D-Bus error reporting works as follows:
 *
 * @code
 * DBusError error;
 * dbus_error_init (&error);
 * dbus_some_function (arg1, arg2, &error);
 * if (dbus_error_is_set (&error))
 *   {
 *     fprintf (stderr, "an error occurred: %s\n", error.message);
 *     dbus_error_free (&error);
 *   }
 * @endcode
 *
 * By convention, all functions allow #NULL instead of a DBusError*,
 * so callers who don't care about the error can ignore it.
 * 
 * There are some rules. An error passed to a D-Bus function must
 * always be unset; you can't pass in an error that's already set.  If
 * a function has a return code indicating whether an error occurred,
 * and also a #DBusError parameter, then the error will always be set
 * if and only if the return code indicates an error occurred. i.e.
 * the return code and the error are never going to disagree.
 *
 * An error only needs to be freed if it's been set, not if
 * it's merely been initialized.
 *
 * You can check the specific error that occurred using
 * dbus_error_has_name().
 * 
 * Errors will not be set for programming errors, such as passing
 * invalid arguments to the libdbus API. Instead, libdbus will print
 * warnings, exit on a failed assertion, or even crash in those cases
 * (in other words, incorrect use of the API results in undefined
 * behavior, possibly accompanied by helpful debugging output if
 * you're lucky).
 *
