Hi Simon, thank you :)

Oh, you are right! Somehow, I was totally mixed up! But I guess, I figured out what disturbed me: For sure it is a bad idea to use the object, if the timing is like this: 1. g_object_unref(conn); 2. g_dbus_connection_emit_signal(conn); => Object is already freed. User deserves the crash ;) But what is, if the timing is like this: 1. g_dbus_connection_emit_signal(conn); 2. g_object_unref(conn); I haven't seen that the "g_dbus_connection_emit_signal"obtains a reference to the connection! Shouldn't it do so, to be sure that the connection is not freed "during" the call? Best regards Jean-Pierre
