But from your mail I suggest it doesn't. Than BlueZ won't be an real option because it heavily depends on the operating system. In the latter case you may a) buy a commercial BT stack which is not OS dependend. b) write your own stack (I don't think to use BlueZ as a base would be a good idea) c) use a BT chip / modul with build in stack Ciao, Peter | Peter Wippich Voice: +49 30 46776411 | | G&W Instruments GmbH fax: +49 30 46776419 | | Gustav-Meyer-Allee 25, Geb. 12 Email: pewi@gw-instruments.de | | D-13355 Berlin / Germany | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
