From: Arsalan Ahmad on 21 Jun 2005 10:12 Hi all, I am interested to write an application (on Pocket PC) which should be able to query availalbe bluetooth devices in my room (for example my Nokia 6270 mobile :)). Could you please what APIs should I use for this? Thanks, Arsalan
From: Peter Foot [MVP] on 21 Jun 2005 12:11 It depends on the Bluetooth stack on your device. If your device uses Microsoft's own stack discovery is performed using WSALookupServiceBegin/Next which is documented in the Pocket PC 2003 SDK. If you have another stack you'll need to use an appropriate 3rd party SDK. If you are developing with .NETCF you'll find a wrapper for device discovery and connectivity for the Microsoft stack here:- http://www.opennetcf.org/PermaLink.aspx?guid=3f99525a-d45f-4db1-bd24-2d88fe343d3f Peter -- Peter Foot Windows Embedded MVP http://www.inthehand.com | http://www.peterfoot.net | http://www.opennetcf.org "Arsalan Ahmad" <arsal__(a)hotmail.com> wrote in message news:uRwg2mndFHA.1448(a)TK2MSFTNGP14.phx.gbl... > Hi all, > > I am interested to write an application (on Pocket PC) which should be > able to query availalbe bluetooth devices in my room (for example my Nokia > 6270 mobile :)).

From: Arsalan Ahmad on 21 Jun 2005 12:47 Thanks, Just another question...If I want to connect my Pocket PC to my mobile via blue-tooth then what APIs should I use?? As far as .NETCF is concerned..i just dont want to go for managed code due to some reasons.

From: RonM on 22 Jun 2005 17:15 Peter: We are a DSP, radio chip developer. Is there anyway to hook our hardware under the Microsoft's XP BT stack? Is there some miniport that we could negotiated for?

Usually, the BT stack for XP is not MS's, but WIDCOMM's and is installed as a part of the BT adapter's driver package, not the OS. It includes the BT Manager which allows you to pair the devices. -- Maxim Shatskih, Windows DDK MVP StorageCraft Corporation maxim(a)storagecraft.com http://www.storagecraft.com "RonM" <doldrum(a)post.com> wrote in message news:eyfzD%232dFHA.220(a)TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl... > Peter: > We are a DSP, radio chip developer.
