Hi,

I am trying to get the BTPoint2Point example to work with Linux through the BlueZ stack. I have tried writing a Basic server and a basic client. Neither will bind to the MAC address and complete the connection.

My code is as follows:
First the client:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <bluetooth/bluetooth.h>
#include <bluetooth/rfcomm.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
struct sockaddr_rc addr = { 0 };
int s, status;
char dest[18] = "01:23:45:67:89:AB";

// allocate a socket
s = socket(AF_BLUETOOTH, SOCK_STREAM, BTPROTO_RFCOMM);

// set the connection parameters (who to connect to)
addr.rc_family = AF_BLUETOOTH;
addr.rc_channel = (uint8_t) 1;
str2ba( dest, &addr.rc_bdaddr );

// connect to server
status = connect(s, (struct sockaddr *)&addr, sizeof(addr));

// send a message
if( status == 0 ) {
status = write(s, "hello!", 6);
}

if( status < 0 ) perror("uh oh");

close(s);
return 0;
}


And the Server:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <bluetooth/bluetooth.h>
#include <bluetooth/rfcomm.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
struct sockaddr_rc loc_addr = { 0 }, rem_addr = { 0 };
char buf[1024] = { 0 };
int s, client, bytes_read;
int opt = sizeof(rem_addr);

// allocate socket
s = socket(AF_BLUETOOTH, SOCK_STREAM, BTPROTO_RFCOMM);

// bind socket to port 1 of the first available
// local bluetooth adapter
loc_addr.rc_family = AF_BLUETOOTH;
loc_addr.rc_bdaddr = *BDADDR_ANY;
loc_addr.rc_channel = (uint8_t) 1;
bind(s, (struct sockaddr *)&loc_addr, sizeof(loc_addr));

// put socket into listening mode
listen(s, 1);

// accept one connection
client = accept(s, (struct sockaddr *)&rem_addr, &opt);

ba2str( &rem_addr.rc_bdaddr, buf );
fprintf(stderr, "accepted connection from %s\n", buf);
memset(buf, 0, sizeof(buf));

// read data from the client
bytes_read = read(client, buf, sizeof(buf));
if( bytes_read > 0 ) {
printf("received [%s]\n", buf);
}

// close connection
close(client);
close(s);
return 0;
}


If i set these two up on seperate Linux boxes they will work fine with each other. Can anyone help me with why the BTPointtoPoint will not work with either, depending on what mode I put the point2point example in?

Thanks for any help
