| void * dbus_malloc | ( | size_t | bytes | ) |
Allocates the given number of bytes, as with standard malloc().
Guaranteed to return NULL if bytes is zero on all platforms. Returns NULL if the allocation fails. The memory must be released with dbus_free().
dbus_malloc() memory is NOT safe to free with regular free() from the C library. Free it with dbus_free() only.

| void dbus_shutdown | ( | void | ) |
Frees all memory allocated internally by libdbus and reverses the effects of dbus_threads_init().
libdbus keeps internal global variables, for example caches and thread locks, and it can be useful to free these internal data structures.
dbus_shutdown() does NOT free memory that was returned to the application. It only returns libdbus-internal data structures.
You MUST free all memory and release all reference counts returned to you by libdbus prior to calling dbus_shutdown().
You can't continue to use any D-Bus objects, such as connections, that were allocated prior to dbus_shutdown(). You can, however, start over; call dbus_threads_init() again, create new connections, and so forth.
WARNING: dbus_shutdown() is NOT thread safe, it must be called while NO other threads are using D-Bus. (Remember, you have to free all D-Bus objects and memory before you call dbus_shutdown(), so no thread can be using libdbus.)
The purpose of dbus_shutdown() is to allow applications to get clean output from memory leak checkers. dbus_shutdown() may also be useful if you want to dlopen() libdbus instead of linking to it, and want to be able to unload the library again.
There is absolutely no requirement to call dbus_shutdown() - in fact, most applications won't bother and should not feel guilty.
You have to know that nobody is using libdbus in your application's process before you can call dbus_shutdown(). One implication of this is that calling dbus_shutdown() from a library is almost certainly wrong, since you don't know what the rest of the app is up to.
