Question to org.freedesktop.portal.Request::Response.

[TornaxO7]

Hello! I'm trying to get a screenshot through the org.freedesktop.portal.Screenshot.Screenshot function which returns me a handle. According to the docs, I should use this path with org.freedesktop.portal.Request::Response but how I a supposed to get retrieve the actual path afterwards?

I'm using rust with zbus to implement all this and here is my code:

{
    let conn = Connection::session()?;

    let screenshot = ScreenshotProxyBlocking::new(&conn).unwrap();
    let options = HashMap::from([
        ("interactive", Value::Bool(false)),
        ("handle_token", Value::Str(Str::from(crate_name!()))),
    ]);
    let path = screenshot.screenshot("", options)?;

    let dest = Signature::try_from("as").unwrap();
    // since `org.freedesktop.portal.Request` is a signal
    conn.emit_signal(
        Some("org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop"),
        path,
        "org.freedesktop.portal.Request",
        "Response",
        &dest,
    )
    .unwrap();

    println!("here: '{}'", dest);

    panic!("Did it work?");
}

I'm a bit out of clue here what I'm supposed to do to retrieve the actual path to the screenshot. Any help would be appreciated! :)

Save yourself time and use https://crates.io/crates/ashpd

Or at best, check its code :-)

Dayum. Holy moly, thank you for hinting this! Basically wasted 2 or 3 days and I could've fixed this within 2 Minutes, lol xD
