The device DBus skeleton interface already implements caching for the properties and can smartly handle their update sending (batched) dbus events on changes. Even if the default properties are only read only and we don't care, we are going to introduce properties that will change values, and so having the skeleton to handle this for us is quite convenient. Given that we don't really need to override those properties, we can just set them at start and leave the skeleton cache to handle the rest. In case we'd ever need to override them, however the skeleton also provides a way to override all the properties and to get a reference of the number of properties it defines, ensuring to keep the order they are defined. This would allow us to get back the parent's properties IDs and to use this to implement ours properties getters/setters using the parent one as fallback. |

fprintd ======= https://fprint.freedesktop.org/ Daemon to offer libfprint functionality over D-Bus Might eat your kangaroo. Written in C. Licensed under the GPL version 2 or any later version (see COPYING). A PAM login module is included in the 'pam' directory. API use cases ============= - User wants to use the fingerprint reader, and enroll his fingerprints, or remove some fingerprints from the database - Administrator wants to enroll fingerprints for a particular user, or remove fingerprints for a particular user - Laptop/desktop authentication: * Check for fingerprint devices * Check whether a particular user has any fingerprints enrolled * Verify a fingerprint for a particular user, or, if the device supports it, verify that the fingerprint matches against any of the fingerprints enrolled - Point Of Sale authentication (in a bar, the fingerprint reader is used to see who accesses a particular point of sale/till, in place of PIN code authentication and/or tokens) * Given a list of users, verify which one has scanned their finger
