Re: [Bluez-devel] Connecting to audio_service.Control (or otherinterfaces)

["David Stockwell" <dstockwell@frequency-one.com>]

Thanks...I missed seeing the new doc/audio-api.txt

It appears to be the old Headset and Sink, with new object path.  That said, the mechanics (esp. SDP browse and pairing) appear to 
be more integrated and I will be trying these out ASAP.

Hi David,

In 4.0 with hcid and the plugins there is only one object path
hierarchy and a single object path per remote device (created by
CreateDevice or CreatePairedDevice). These paths have some generic
name plus the remote address and I don't remember right now how it
looks like. Try out those Create*Device methods and find out :)

No. In 4.x only one method call is needed to set up a new device.
Calling CreateDevice or CreatePairedDevice will cause hcid to perform
SDP discovery and if it finds audio profiles a callback will be fired
into the audio plugin which in turn will register the necessary audio
specific D-Bus interfaces for the new device object.

Any API docs outside of the doc/ subdirectory are obsolete. You can
find the 4.x audio API in doc/audio-api.txt
