[postmaster]

Hi there

Im sort of new to bluetooth and bt development but its going ok so far=2E =
Im
writing a little tool which displays all current devices in range=2E Since=
 my
code uses ripped parts from hcitool scan i can succesfully enumerate the
device address and name, my question is , how do I parse  the device_class=

item from the inquiry_info structure ? Say device ID is 001, i want to
convert it to an human readable string like 001 =3D=3D Phone, 002 =3D=3D A=
udio
etc=2E=2E=2E where can i find an translation list for this ? after a heavy=
 google
battle i found a PalmOS site which mentions the bluetooth specs, but the
prop is , i can find only parts of it and my 'bluetooth unreveiled' book i=
s
currently beeing shipped to me (i hope its mentioned there)=2E I hope im n=
ot
forced to use a sdptool query since some 'light' devices dont have it
onboard, like headsets etc

thanks for the help !

Ed=2E
