Setting up a pc bluetooth server for android
- by Del
Alright, I've been reading a lot of topics the past two or three days and nothing seems to have asked this.
I am writing a PC side server for my andriod device, this is for exchanging some information and general debugging. Eventually I will be connecting to a SPP device to control a microcontroller.
I have managed, using the following (Android to pc) to connect to rfcomm channel 11 and exchange data between my android device and my pc.
Method m = device.getClass().getMethod("createRfcommSocket", new Class[] { int.class });
tmp = (BluetoothSocket) m.invoke(device, Integer.valueOf(11));
I have attempted the createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord(UUID) method, with absolutely no luck.
For the PC side, I have been using the C Bluez stack for linux. I have the following code which registers the service and opens a server socket:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
struct sockaddr_rc loc_addr = { 0 }, rem_addr = { 0 };
char buf[1024] = { 0 };
char str[1024] = { 0 };
int s, client, bytes_read;
sdp_session_t *session;
socklen_t opt = sizeof(rem_addr);
session = register_service();
s = socket(AF_BLUETOOTH, SOCK_STREAM, BTPROTO_RFCOMM);
loc_addr.rc_family = AF_BLUETOOTH;
loc_addr.rc_bdaddr = *BDADDR_ANY;
loc_addr.rc_channel = (uint8_t) 11;
bind(s, (struct sockaddr *)&loc_addr, sizeof(loc_addr));
listen(s, 1);
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));
bytes_read = read(client, buf, sizeof(buf));
if( bytes_read 0 ) {
printf("received [%s]\n", buf);
}
sprintf(str,"to Android.");
printf("sent [%s]\n",str);
write(client, str, sizeof(str));
close(client);
close(s);
sdp_close( session );
return 0;
}
sdp_session_t *register_service()
{
uint32_t svc_uuid_int[] = { 0x00000000,0x00000000,0x00000000,0x00000000 };
uint8_t rfcomm_channel = 11;
const char *service_name = "Remote Host";
const char *service_dsc = "What the remote should be connecting to.";
const char *service_prov = "Your mother";
uuid_t root_uuid, l2cap_uuid, rfcomm_uuid, svc_uuid;
sdp_list_t *l2cap_list = 0,
*rfcomm_list = 0,
*root_list = 0,
*proto_list = 0,
*access_proto_list = 0;
sdp_data_t *channel = 0, *psm = 0;
sdp_record_t *record = sdp_record_alloc();
// set the general service ID
sdp_uuid128_create( &svc_uuid, &svc_uuid_int );
sdp_set_service_id( record, svc_uuid );
// make the service record publicly browsable
sdp_uuid16_create(&root_uuid, PUBLIC_BROWSE_GROUP);
root_list = sdp_list_append(0, &root_uuid);
sdp_set_browse_groups( record, root_list );
// set l2cap information
sdp_uuid16_create(&l2cap_uuid, L2CAP_UUID);
l2cap_list = sdp_list_append( 0, &l2cap_uuid );
proto_list = sdp_list_append( 0, l2cap_list );
// set rfcomm information
sdp_uuid16_create(&rfcomm_uuid, RFCOMM_UUID);
channel = sdp_data_alloc(SDP_UINT8, &rfcomm_channel);
rfcomm_list = sdp_list_append( 0, &rfcomm_uuid );
sdp_list_append( rfcomm_list, channel );
sdp_list_append( proto_list, rfcomm_list );
// attach protocol information to service record
access_proto_list = sdp_list_append( 0, proto_list );
sdp_set_access_protos( record, access_proto_list );
// set the name, provider, and description
sdp_set_info_attr(record, service_name, service_prov, service_dsc);
int err = 0;
sdp_session_t *session = 0;
// connect to the local SDP server, register the service record, and
// disconnect
session = sdp_connect( BDADDR_ANY, BDADDR_LOCAL, SDP_RETRY_IF_BUSY );
err = sdp_record_register(session, record, 0);
// cleanup
//sdp_data_free( channel );
sdp_list_free( l2cap_list, 0 );
sdp_list_free( rfcomm_list, 0 );
sdp_list_free( root_list, 0 );
sdp_list_free( access_proto_list, 0 );
return session;
}
And another piece of code, in addition to 'sdptool browse local' which can verifty that the service record is running on the pc:
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
uuid_t svc_uuid;
uint32_t svc_uuid_int[] = { 0x00000000,0x00000000,0x00000000,0x00000000 };
int err;
bdaddr_t target;
sdp_list_t *response_list = NULL, *search_list, *attrid_list;
sdp_session_t *session = 0;
str2ba( "01:23:45:67:89:AB", &target );
// connect to the SDP server running on the remote machine
session = sdp_connect( BDADDR_ANY, BDADDR_LOCAL, SDP_RETRY_IF_BUSY );
// specify the UUID of the application we're searching for
sdp_uuid128_create( &svc_uuid, &svc_uuid_int );
search_list = sdp_list_append( NULL, &svc_uuid );
// specify that we want a list of all the matching applications' attributes
uint32_t range = 0x0000ffff;
attrid_list = sdp_list_append( NULL, &range );
// get a list of service records that have UUID 0xabcd
err = sdp_service_search_attr_req( session, search_list, \
SDP_ATTR_REQ_RANGE, attrid_list, &response_list);
sdp_list_t *r = response_list;
// go through each of the service records
for (; r; r = r-next ) {
sdp_record_t *rec = (sdp_record_t*) r-data;
sdp_list_t *proto_list;
// get a list of the protocol sequences
if( sdp_get_access_protos( rec, &proto_list ) == 0 ) {
sdp_list_t *p = proto_list;
// go through each protocol sequence
for( ; p ; p = p-next ) {
sdp_list_t *pds = (sdp_list_t*)p-data;
// go through each protocol list of the protocol sequence
for( ; pds ; pds = pds-next ) {
// check the protocol attributes
sdp_data_t *d = (sdp_data_t*)pds-data;
int proto = 0;
for( ; d; d = d-next ) {
switch( d-dtd ) {
case SDP_UUID16:
case SDP_UUID32:
case SDP_UUID128:
proto = sdp_uuid_to_proto( &d-val.uuid );
break;
case SDP_UINT8:
if( proto == RFCOMM_UUID ) {
printf("rfcomm channel: %d\n",d-val.int8);
}
break;
}
}
}
sdp_list_free( (sdp_list_t*)p-data, 0 );
}
sdp_list_free( proto_list, 0 );
}
printf("found service record 0x%x\n", rec-handle);
sdp_record_free( rec );
}
sdp_close(session);
}
Output:
$ ./search
rfcomm channel: 11
found service record 0x10008
sdptool:
Service Name: Remote Host
Service Description: What the remote should be connecting to.
Service Provider: Your mother
Service RecHandle: 0x10008
Protocol Descriptor List:

"RFCOMM" (0x0003)

And for logcat I'm getting this:

Sorry for bombarding you guys with what seems like a difficult question and a lot to read, but I've been working on this problem for a while and I've tried a lot of different things to get this working.
Let me reiterate, I can get it to work, but not using service discovery protocol. I've tried a several different UUIDs and on two different computers, although I only have my HTC Incredible to test with.
I've also heard some rumors that the BT stack wasn't working on the HTC Droid, but that isn't the case, at least, for PC interaction.
