So, I already know there is no way to programatically create a serial port for a given bluetooth device.... or is there? Reading through the docs online, I was initially hesitant to move my "legacy" serial port code over to RFCOMM. But, after reading "Accessing Serial Ports" in "Working with Bluetooth Devices" enough times, I was convinced it would be a good idea to upgrade my code. And hey, I could use the proper bluetooth UIs. So, I updated all my serial code to RFCOMM. Did you guys consider the possibility of a developer *needing* access to the standard POSIX ttys, even *with* proper bluetooth device handling? For, perhaps, internet connection software? I notice that the bluetooth setup wizard only creates a serial port if the user selects "Use this device to connect to the internet with". Did you guys ever consider, your not the only one thats going to want to do that? The application I am updating, is in fact an internet connection manager! I love the new bluetooth UIs in my application, but now that I am at the final phase of updating my code, I realized, *crap*, I STILL NEED a POSIX serial port. I need a modem path to configure in System Configuration so that my application can actually create an internet connection!!!! What do I do now?? There *must* be a way to create it. You guys are doing it...... Please advise. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
