SYNOPSIS
my $call = Net::DBus::Binding::PendingCall->new(method_call => $call,

# Wait for completion
$call->block;
# And get the reply message
my $msg = $call->get_reply;
DESCRIPTION
This object is used when it is necessary to make asynchronous method calls. It provides the means to be notified when the reply is finally received.METHODS
- my $call = Net::DBus::Binding::PendingCall->new(method_call => $method_call, pending_call => $pending_call);
- Creates a new pending call object, with the "method_call" parameter being a reference to the "Net::DBus::Binding::Message::MethodCall" object whose reply is being waiting for. The "pending_call" parameter is a reference to the raw C pending call object.
- $call->cancel
- Cancel the pending call, causing any reply that is later received to be discarded.
- my $boolean = $call->get_completed
- Returns a true value if the pending call has received its reply, or a timeout has occurred.
- $call->block
- Block the caller until the reply is received or a timeout occurrs.
- my $msg = $call->get_reply;
- Retrieves the "Net::DBus::Binding::Message" object associated with the complete call.
- $call->set_notify($coderef);
- Sets a notification function to be invoked when the pending call completes. The callback will be passed a single argument which is this pending call object.
