For what is worth, I have never figured out a way to use the HID manager for Bluetooth.
Would still love to learn how to use HID manager for Bluetooth, though.
All projects that use Bluetooth that I know of use the lower level Bluetooth API to communicate (which works very well, BTW)
That's the way I ended up going for my project.
Best.

I also am looking for the exact same thing as Luigi was a year ago.
I checked out the code for the DarwiinRemote project, but it does not
seem to use HID Manager. I am guessing based on this that is it
using some CoreGraphics/QuartzComposer API:
CGEventPost(kCGHIDEventTap, event);
Anyone have any docs, example code, or even ideas about using
Bluetooth devices with HID Manager?
