Looking around the web I can find quite a bit of information about using BlueZ as a BLE client for connecting to other BLE devices to read/write attributes, but I am struggling to find anything which helps explain creating a BLE service and dealing with advertising. Can anyone point me to a resource for learning to work with the BlueZ C api for creating/starting/stopping services, adding/modifying characteristics, starting/stopping/modifying advertisments? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Currently there is no sample in C but the plan is to add some support to bluetoothctl to do that, in the meantime you can check the examples in python under test/example-gatt-server and test/example-advertising. Alternatively you can create a plugin and link it directly with the daemon so that you can use BlueZ C API, but this is only recommended if you need low level access or there is security implication/special access necessary for the services you want to add. -- Luiz Augusto von Dentz -- 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
