Hi Marcel,

Sorry, I think have written an unclear text.

The first argument of an error message MUST be a string containing the
error description, this is a D-Bus definition. Regarding the error code
mapping I think my last email make more clear how I intend work
with system, D-Bus and HCI errors. Although I am defining a way to
report HCI error, I think it will not be possible catch this kind of error
without get the hci command complete event.


REgards,
Claudio
