Hi all, this is my first post to this mailing list, sorry if I am in the wrong place. I'm learning Bluetooth Low Energy with a simple Android application. Since the Android API implements only the "central" side of the BTLE stack, I need to implement the "peripheral" side on my laptop (thinkpad edge e130, bluetooth 4.0, linux 3.11). As I understand, Bluez should support this feature (while Windows 8 and Max OSX don't). For now I'm able to "advertise" my laptop using the command "hciconfig hci0 leadv". My android app succeeds to find my laptop after a btleScan(). Of course actually there is no a GATT server and no "characteristics" to read and write. I really need some hints on how to create a GATT server using Bluez, so I have some questions. 1. In my distro, I have by default Bluez 4.101. Should I compile Bluez 5? 2. If I have to use Bluez 5, should I learn how to program using DBus? 3. I I can use Bluez 4, what are the header files that I'm required to include? (i.e. the function that I have to use?) I know the C language, but I have no idea how to deal with kernel code as Bluez seems to be, sorry if these are noob questions.
