Question about Bluez /peripheral code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am trying to write a simple C language HID peripheral device with
NoInputNoOutput style authentication.

1. Are the files in bluez /peripheral all that is necessary (in user
space) to run a Bluetooth peripheral devices? Does /peripheral support
the HID profile?

2. Is there any C example code of using either the /peripheral code or
src/shared to create a HID peripheral device?

A little bit more background:
I have been working with a version of hidclient.c, which is a GPL
licensed project for a virtual Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. This
program was originally written in 2006.

My problem with hidclient.c is that it does not handling re-connection
correctly, such as a laptop being powered off and on again and still
retaining the connection to the Bluetooth HID device. It also requires
bluetoothd to be running in compatibility mode.

I am looking for a modern C language HID peripheral server that is
known to work well with re-connection.

I am using an ARM processor running Debian Jesse with BlueZ 5.23.

Thanks for your time.
