#### Declaration [src]

    gchar*
    g_dbus_address_escape_value (

#### Description [src]

Escape `string` so it can appear in a D-Bus address as the value part of a key-value pair.

For instance, if `string` is `/run/bus-for-:0`, this function would return `/run/bus-for-`3A0`, which could be used in a D-Bus address like `unix:nonce-tcp:host=127.0.0.1,port=42,noncefile=/run/bus-for-`3A0`.

Available since: 2.36

#### Return value

Type: `gchar*`

A copy of `string` with all non-optionally-escaped bytes escaped.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
