I have to third that motion. I have had significant problems connecting to our BT devices (which aren't phones or any other device type listed in the "Device Type" pulldown menu of Apple's BT browser) since upgrading to 10.2.4. The Bluetooth Serial Utility even crashes periodically when I try to use it to make connections. My application likewise crashes periodically when the IOBluetoothDevice openConnection method fails. However, the crash doesn't occur immediately, but seemingly at the end of the current run loop (and no, I'm not autoreleasing any objects). Because the crash doesn't occur immediately, I have been able to add a mechanism (ok, a couple of lines of code) to make a predetermined number of retries when the connection fails. As long as one of the retries works, my program no longer crashes, and the reliability of the connection has been pretty-much flawless if I make multiple attempts at it. ...Eric Crichlow... ...GTCO CalComp... _______________________________________________ bluetooth-dev mailing list | bluetooth-dev@lists.apple.com Help/Unsubscribe/Archives: http://www.lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/bluetooth-dev Do not post admin requests to the list.
