| 1. Bluetooth boogies, Part 2: Creating the Bluetooth Music Store | |
| "In this article, I'm going to demonstrate how to create a simple OBEX client application that can transfer a file to the server application. You'll also learn how to modify your OBEX client application into a Bluetooth Music Store. OBEX is a preferred method of sending and receiving files between two Bluetooth devices. (In the first article in this two-part series, I introduced the semantics of OBEX and explained how to create an OBEX server application.)" | |
| 2. Add a Bluetooth text protocol to J2ME apps | |
| "To tie together disparate collections of devices from multiple manufacturers, you need a simple, flexible method of communication. Technologies such as Object Exchange (OBEX) deal with the transmission of binary data, which, while crucial for many Bluetooth applications, is not ideal for implementing simple message protocols. Also, you need to work with the concepts of device and service discovery, which are essential to building ad hoc peer-to-peer connections between devices. The btevents package provides an easy, repeatable technique to enable simple textual communication between Bluetooth devices." | |
