Hi! I have some troubles with using DeviceFound and DeviceDisappeared
signals. I use simple test script: http://pastebin.com/m45de7894 . There
are two cases: if I use software inquire scheduler and if I use hardware
one.
Hardware scheduler. Bluetooth module in phone is on and I run script:
---
ilya@ilya-laptop:~/blue$ python fodis.py
Fri May 1 16:36:44 2009 Signal: DeviceFound 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
---
And no more signals. Then I wait 2 mins, turn off Bluetooth in phone and
wait 2 more mins, but no one signal is emitted.
I don't know if DeviceFound signal should be emitted on every inquire,
maybe not. But I'm sure DeviceDisappeared signal should be emitted at
least once :)
Software scheduler ("DiscoverSchedulerInterval = 1" at main.conf).
Bluetooth module in phone is on and I run script:
---
ilya@ilya-laptop:~/blue$ python fodis.py
Fri May 1 16:43:52 2009 Signal: DeviceFound 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
Fri May 1 16:44:11 2009 Signal: DeviceDisappeared 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
Fri May 1 16:44:14 2009 Signal: DeviceFound 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
Fri May 1 16:44:34 2009 Signal: DeviceDisappeared 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
Fri May 1 16:44:37 2009 Signal: DeviceFound 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
Fri May 1 16:44:57 2009 Signal: DeviceDisappeared 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
Fri May 1 16:45:00 2009 Signal: DeviceFound 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
Fri May 1 16:45:20 2009 Signal: DeviceDisappeared 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
Fri May 1 16:45:23 2009 Signal: DeviceFound 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
### At this moment I turn off Bluetooth in phone
Fri May 1 16:45:43 2009 Signal: DeviceDisappeared 00:16:B8:53:5F:17

So, both signals was emitted on every inquiry. I think this is wrong
behavior. Am I right?
And DeviceDisappeared was emitted once after remote device was actually
turned off. That's good :)

You may just have to wait longer to get the DeviceDisappeared signal
the fact the you turned off the device doesn't mean it will instantly
disappear it may happen that bluetoothd is idle waiting for scheduler
to start another discovery round (use Discovering property to check
that.). I will double check if there is some logic problem while
emitting DeviceDisappeared but I remember fixing it myself last time
and have no complaining since then.

I just would add that with hardware scheduler DeviceDisappeared signal
works fine if there two remote devices in the field, and doesn't work if
there is only one remote device:
---
# Now there only 00:16:B8:53:5F:17 is turned on
Fri May 1 20:36:48 2009 Signal: DeviceFound 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
# Now I turn off 00:16:B8:53:5F:17 and wait, but no signal being emitted...
# So, I turn on 00:02:76:16:F6:8F
Fri May 1 20:38:52 2009 Signal: DeviceFound 00:02:76:16:F6:8F
Fri May 1 20:39:01 2009 Signal: DeviceDisappeared 00:16:B8:53:5F:17
# So new device appearing causes emitting DeviceDisappeared signal for
device that was turned off some time ago

P.S. I use BlueZ 4.36
