+ <para><function>sd_bus_message_get_type()</function> returns the type of a message in the output
+ parameter <parameter>type</parameter>, one of <constant>SD_BUS_MESSAGE_METHOD_CALL</constant>,
+ <constant>SD_BUS_MESSAGE_METHOD_RETURN</constant>,
+ <constant>SD_BUS_MESSAGE_METHOD_ERROR</constant>, <constant>SD_BUS_MESSAGE_SIGNAL</constant>.
+ This type is either specified as a parameter when the message is created using
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_set_message_new</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
+ or is set automatically when the message is created using
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_set_message_new_signal</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,

+ and similar functions.
+ </para>
+
+ <para><function>sd_bus_message_is_signal()</function> checks if message <parameter>m</parameter>
+ is a signal message. If <parameter>interface</parameter> is non-null, it also checks if the
+ message has the same interface set. If <parameter>member</parameter> is non-null, it also checks
+ if the message has the same member set. Also see
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_set_message_new_signal</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. It returns true when all checks pass.</para>

+ <para><function>sd_bus_message_is_method_error()</function> checks if message <parameter>m</parameter>
