[Bluez-devel] Setting a PIN without a GUI.

[Bluez-devel] Setting a PIN without a GUI.

[Dave Mielke]

Is there a way for a user who isn't running X, i.e. who's just using text mode,
to associate a Bluetooth device and its PIN? Is there a text-mode command which
does this? Is there a file which can be edited?

you have to provide a passkey agent that will handle the PIN request.
The bluez-utils source contains an example passkey-agent.c that we used
for testing.

Can a variant of that tool run as a thread which lives for the duration of the
connect attempt? If so, does it need to stay running until the close or can it
be terminated as soon as the connect succeeds?

I tried to compile it with -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 and -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0, and
still got VERSION not defined.

Is there a tool which should give me the right compile and link flags?
