Re: [Bluez-devel] DBUS service support

[Claudio Takahasi <cktakahasi@gmail.com>]

Hi Marcel,

Sorry, I was not my objective provoke this discussion. I posted in both lis=
t
to try reach all bluez community members and figure out who are researching=
 this
topic in order to share information.

I will contact the Network Manager developers to verify if a bluetooth
dbus service support can be useful.

At BlueZ side,  search, connect, disconnect, security and IP configuration=
=20
functions have be provided by a library. I developed a initial library and=
=20
it is working fine. BlueZ does not need provide a DBUS service, only interf=
aces=20
for a DBUS service daemon are required. The DBUS service=20
daemon must control all media(bluetooth, WLAN, ETH, ...) =20
This is my idea of how DBUS and Bluetooth can work together providing
seamless connections.

Regards,
Claudio.
