[Bluez-devel] dbus api

[Alexander <amour@rousse.org>]

Hello list,

I'm working on a C++ library that invokes bluez over dbus. I'm currently 
having some trouble understanding the logic of a local service. Could 
someone explain me the way local services are managed? Like, calling 
RegisterService() of the org.bluez.Database, what does that method do? 
Does it create a new ServiceRecord on hciX? If so, what happens with the 
protocol descriptors of that service record? How can I list all the 
registered services on hciX? I see Add and Update methods for service 
records but no ListServiceRecords()? There is a ListServices() method on 
the manager interface but this interface is just for the /org/bluez 
object path, so this won't give me a list just for hciX. Also, the 
org.bluez.Service interface, does it have anything to do with 
Add/UpdateServiceRecord() methods of the database interface? Can I 
modify the service record (for example the protocol descriptors) of a 
service represented by the org.bluez.Service interface?
What happened with the RFCOMM API? I agree it wasn't very nice by 
forcing you to open /dev/tty* but it was at least something, now there 
isn't anything dbus based. A RFCOMM API with connect(), disconnect(), 
read() and write() will be just great (all dbus based ofcourse, no 
/dev/tty* stuff :) ).

best regards,
Alexander
