Hi all,
What is the easiest way (/package?) to get OBEX support on top of Bluez ?
I saw that there are two obex servers in bluez.org - obexd-0.3 and
obex-data-server-0.3.2.
What's the difference between those two ? which one should I pick ?
And - where can I find OBEX client ?
Thank you all for the help
Voni

just go into the code and replace SESSION with SYSTEM and create a D-Bus
security policy file for org.openobex.

I am not touching that code anymore, but that could be easily fixed :)
You will have to do some development since you can't expect that you can
just take open source stuff without any integration work. And that is
exactly what you have to do, integrate it. If patches come up during
this, then send them upstream and we likely include them and then next
time (next product) the integration work goes down.

I need to be able to demonstrate OBEX profiles on a bluez-based
embedded system which is very early in its development. No GUI
whatsover. I only have the shell. I have DBUS obviously (although I
only run system session currently). It's really important because this
way managers here will be able to choose between bluez and other
stacks.
I guess that currently my only option is obexftp ? Unfortunately it
doesn't cross compile cleanly.. (I did manage to cross compile
openobex without a problem though).
IIRC the obex project in the bluez cvs worked pretty nice on a PC.
unfortunately we use expat and not libxml so I can't use it on my
embedded system..
Thank you for all the help!

obexd is only a server and it needs some interaction with the UI to some
degree for authorization callbacks and so on. Feel free to propose
patches since we can add switches for a fully command line based use
cases.
The current assumption is it runs in the user session and hence
requiring a D-Bus session bus. However the end goal is to give the
choice to run it at system level if you don't have a fine grained
security model anyway.
For these case it really helps if you just state what you wanna do with
it. Otherwise we will focus on our current plans and do everything else
when we have time. Also patches are always welcome.

Be patient. Even while some of us look online 24/7, we are not :)

OpenOBEX into FUSE integration.

I kept the repository there as an example. It is old and hasn't been
updated in a long time.

Also there is an 'obex' project in the bluez cvs, i think it is obex
client, but i can't use it because it requires libxml and we use
libexpat in our embedded system (libxml is bloated!)

Thanks I will try it

What is obexfs btw ?
Did you succeed to cross compile obexftp ? (I succeeded to 'make' it,
but when i tried to 'make install' it weirdly failed)
thank you

I've tried obex-data-server and obexd, but I couldn't get either one working.
I asked on the list but there wasn't a reply. The one I use currently is one I
found, made by someone, and patched a bit to compile here by myself. Credits
are in the files, but I can't remember the author right now. It has both
server and client. It is as it is, I can't say how functional or secure it is,
but it meets my needs. You'll need openobex, glib, bluez, zlib, pcre and
be able to compile stuff with it. I also use obexftp and obexfs.

Another question related - what about OpenOBEX ? is it recommended ?
how does it differ from the obex servers hosted on bluez website ?
Thanks!
