Subject: [Bluez-users] Is root needed to run this bluetooth related code
Date: Wed, 16 May 2007 10:52:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070516085227.GD4016@punkass.com> (raw)
I'll copy and paste some code of the bluez utils in order for one of
my applications to be able to execute tasks similar to those run by
these commands.
$ hcitool scan
In order to get a list of devices within range.
$ sdptool browse ...
In order to get a list of active profiles in the device selected by
the user.
$ rfcomm connect ...
I order to enable a serial device between my application and the
needed profile in the selected device.
My question is: Will an application that needs to perform these task
be forced to be run as root?
Any pointers welcome.
Cordially, Ismael
