    <title>Description</title>

    <para><function>sd_bus_message_copy()</function> copies the contents from
    message <parameter>source</parameter> to <parameter>m</parameter>. If
    <parameter>all</parameter> is false, a single complete type is copied
    (basic or container). If <parameter>all</parameter> is true, the contents
    are copied until the end of the currently open container or the end
    of <parameter>source</parameter>.</para>

  <refsect1>
    <title>Return Value</title>

    <para>On success, this call returns true if anything was copied, and false if
    there was nothing to copy. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error
    code.</para>
