I wonder if we couldn't create something more generic for telephony as SAP could use the same agent, although SAP doesn't use AT commands there are some overlap between handsfree Profile and Sim Access. Also I prefer just RegisterAgent and UnregisterAgent, the interface already has Handsfree in its name. > An interesting thing to note here is that the API will utilize DBus 1.3+ > capability for file-descriptor passing to pass the RFCOMM socket from > bluetoothd to oFono.

In general I prefer this Agent based (runtime) mechanism rather than having those telephony drivers in BlueZ (buildtime), even for server role, it is much easier to test (no rebuild and restart) and also very convenient if e.g. the platform needs to talk to something (telepathy) in session bus, in that case the agent process just need to connect to both system and session bus but the driver can't do that since we don't know about session. -- Luiz Augusto von Dentz Engenheiro de Computação -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
