[Bluez-devel] access to hci devices

Hello developers

I've written a basic bluetooth stack in java which is fine for my embedded java systems 
and talks H4 to a device out of a serial port.

I would like to talk to USB devices in Linux using my stack also.
Rather than re-invent the wheel, how hard would it be for me to fire my HCI packets at a 
usb device using the HCI-USB / HCI_UART bluez drivers?

many thanks

Rob

it is possible with BlueZ, but in that case you better should use the
BlueTTY driver you can found under the USB subsystem, when you disable
the Bluetooth subsystem in your kernel config.
