Will the source for the Bluetooth stack ever be included in Darwin? -Ben _______________________________________________ bluetooth-dev mailing list | bluetooth-dev(a)lists.apple.com Help/Unsubscribe/Archives: http://www.lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/bluetooth-dev Do not post admin requests to the list.

Re: Using Bluetooth in C
by Greg Eigsti 24 Sep '03

I am new to the Mac and its dev environment (OSX 10.2.6) and like Robert am trying to use the Bluetooth C APIs and getting unresolved symbols. I have not found a lib (.a file) that contains the proper symbols and have tried using the IOBluetooth.framework. I am including the following headers and that makes the compiler happy #include <stdio.h> #include <CoreFoundation/CoreFoundation.h> #include <IOBluetooth/Bluetooth.h> #include <IOBluetooth/IOBluetoothUserLib.h> My app links with the following 'External Frameworks and Libraries' libstdc++.a IOBluetooth.framework The simple code looks like: int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) { NumVersion swVer; BluetoothHCIVersionInfo hwVer; IOReturn ioRet = IOBluetoothGetVersion(&swVer, &hwVer); return 0; } The link error: ld: warning prebinding disabled because of undefined symbols ld: Undefined symbols: IOBluetoothGetVersion(NumVersion*, BluetoothHCIVersionInfo*) So, do I need to do something special with my IOBluetooth.framework 'External Frameworks and Libraries'? Possibly a setting that I am missing? Is there a non-framework static lib that I can link to? Any C/C++ sample code (I am not familiar with the coding style of the provided samples - .m files)? Thanks! Greg ---------------------------------------------------------- You need the IOBluetooth.framework and (if you need UI components) the IOBluetoothUI.framework. They are both in /System/Library/Frameworks. I noted the you intend to write an command-line application, so be aware that many of framework API need to run on a runloop environment. ...

browsing routines made public
by Martin Svensson 23 Sep '03

23 Sep '03

Sorry if this topic has come up before but I could not find it. I was wondering if and when the routines to find bluetooth devices and their services will become available outside the UI classes. What I want is to directly from a program make the connections without having the user to do it.

bluetooth adaptive frequency hopping
by Harry Teng 16 Sep '03

16 Sep '03

It seems that the newly introduced bluetooth mouse and keyboard are using the adaptive frequency hopping defined in the bluetooth 1.2 spec. What kind of channel assessment method do they use? RSSI, PER or other? Thanks in advance. Harry __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Compatibility issues with DWB-120M vs DBT-120
by Paul Davis 16 Sep '03

16 Sep '03

To whom it may concern: I was certainly happy to finally see the Bluetooth keyboard and mouse from Apple. I will be buying!! I am surprised that the DWB-120M will not be supported, however. Since I am developing apps that currently use the DWB-120M could you give some details to the hardware shortcomings of the DWB-120M. I would like my apps to be compatible with both versions of the Bluetooth dongle. Was there a specific hardware upgrade required for the HID profile? Did the change have anything to do with supporting scatternet or master/slave switching. Any insight would be much appreciated. Any thoughts about giving the people who bought the DWB-120M a discount on the DBT-120?

Re: remoteNameRequest
by Marco Pontil 10 Sep '03

10 Sep '03

- (IOReturn)remoteNameRequest:(id)target; is an asynchronous call. Target is the object to call once the remoteNameRequest is completed. To get the result the target object has to implement the method remoteNameRequestComplete:status: which may look something like: - (void)remoteNameRequestComplete:(IOBluetoothDevice *)device status:(IOReturn)status { if ( status == kIOReturnSuccess ) { NSString *name = [device getName]; } } On Sep 10, 2003, at 5:18 AM, Eivind Andersen wrote: An IOBluetoothDevice object has the following metod: - (IOReturn)remoteNameRequest:(id)target; What is the (id)target argument? What should the argument be if i want to send the REMOTE_NAME_REQUEST message to my mobile phone? (The thing is: I want to get the name of the bluetooth device, without having to set up a full link establisment first) I would be grateful for any help!
