Java Bluetooth

salamo 3likom,

I want to know how i can build java Desktop bluetooth application , what API should i use ?

Thanx.

Well you should use a JSR 82

Well you should use a JSR 82 implementation to use Bluetooth API with Desktop or PC clients. It also depends on whether you are going to deploy on a Linux or Windows based PC because there are differences in the implementation for the Bluetooth Stack.

 Here is a library called BlueCove:

Also you can find here very useful examples:

This is the official Linux Bluetooth stack (Bluez):

 And also there are very useful resources and examples on this Yahoo group which was a great help for me while working on a similar project once:

 Hope this helped.

Many Thanx

Many thanx,

i'll build it on linux i hope that i'll find a good API , there's a BlueZ bindings for Java called JBlueZ but i think it's not finished yet and the project maybe dead .

anyway , thanx for your help. 

I'm not much of a Java

I'm not much of a Java expert, but since BlueZ has a DBus interface then I guess you can connect to it using the Java DBus bindings
