[Bluez-users] BlueZ API documentation

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 515 bytes --]

All,
    Where can I find the documentation for BlueZ API's ? I'm looking for documentations for hci_xxx functions.
I looked under bluez wiki and HOWTO pages but did not find anything specific to API documentation. 

Sorry if this a FAQ and the answer is popular arealy :)

Thanks
~bd~

the Bluetooth library is not really documented. Use the source, Luke ;)

Thanks for the quick Marcel.

Not problem. I think I should get used to the src code. 

One quick question though (just to get around what I'm currently stuck with)

I want to programatically control the disovery status of my local BT device.
Meaning - my program should be able to set the BT device status so that other device cannot "see" it.

I noticed these in hci.h

#define OCF_WRITE_SCAN_ENABLE       0x001A
    #define SCAN_DISABLED       0x00
    #define SCAN_INQUIRY        0x01
    #define SCAN_PAGE       0x02


But I am not sure what API's should be used and how.
I'll be happy to update the wiki with these kind of info - if thats useful

if you wanna mess around with the HCI directly then you are on your own.
Why don't you use the nice D-Bus API we have. I gives you everything you
need and takes care of all the minor details you don't even wanna know
about.

Marcel
