It is different from the RSSI value you get via inquiry anyway. Well, that wouldn't matter, as I'm going to put all that into a wrapper class anyway. Maybe a word about what I'm trying to do - as you may have guessed already, it's about proximity sensing. I've put a minimal Dbus interface into my wrapper class and it's actually working quite nicely. However, some of the devices which I'm working with - e.g., Motorola mobile phones - have a hardcoded discoverable timeout of 3 minutes. This makes things a bit more difficult for me, as these phones suddenly vanish from the list which the Dbus interface is providing, even if they are still in range. With the hci_* interface, I can simply try to open an ACL connection and get the RSSI value to see if they are just invisible. How do I do this with Dbus?
