I just tried to run a vala bluez example (found in the DbusClientSamples page) and I got this error:

GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownObject:
Method "DiscoverDevices" with signature "" on interface "org.bluez.Adapter"
doesn't exist

Is the sample using deprecated API? If yes, where can I find an updated document about bluez's DBUS API? All documents I find (by googling) contain the DiscoverDevices method, so I'm quite confused.

AFAICT org.bluez.Adapter is gone (I don't see it on my Fedora 20 system, running bluez-5.12). In its place is org.bluez.Adapter1. You can get all the latest documentation for the bluez D-Bus API at https://git.kernel.org/cgit/bluetooth/bluez.git/tree/doc
