TCP/IP bluetooth nightmare!!

Question

Hello all,
I seem to be having a bit of nightmare of a time figuring out how to do the following in bluetooth:
Scan for bluetooth devices - This i can do.
Connected to a bluetooth device - This i can do.
Send TCP packets over the internet via the bluetooth device - Nightmare!
Receive TCP packets from the internet via the bluetooth device - Nightmare!
I can only find some sketchy info and no code examples for this. Please help!
How do i do this?

Answer 1

Here's one suggestion:
1. Create a Client class.
2. Create a Server class.
3. Create a SpawnedServer class.
4. Create an Application or whatever that uses the Client class.
1. The Client class has as a data member a Socket that connects to the server and gets the info.
2. The Server class has a ServerSocket and also has a while true loop that does the following:
Socket sock = servSock.accept()
new SpawnedServer(sock).start()
3. The SpawnedServer class has a Socket data member that gets initialized in its constructor that is
called when it is created above. The SpawnedServer class extends Thread and does most of its work
in the run method.
4. Start the server.
5. Run application programs as desired.
Think of all of the things that you would want a Client to do:
For example, open a connection, receive a message, close a connection, output the reply...
Think of all of the things that you would want a SpawnedServer to do:
receive a message, process a message, respond to a message...
Implement a small portion. Test it. When it works, implement another and test it. Do this until completed.
I hope this advice helps some. I am relatively new to the programming game, but have found that it is very helpful
to implement piece by piece when a program is somewhat complex.
Good luck.
