Connecting mobile to PC

Peace upon you
There are many ways to establish connection between mobile and Personal computer. First you can use AT commands but my essay focus on using Bluetooth to establishing the connection. J2SE used in personal computers does not support the JSR-82 API by default. There are many frameworks that allow you to work with BlueTooth with J2SE. Framewoks such as :

ROCOCO Software's Bluetooth development tools and technology licensing kit use standard Java application programming interfaces (APIs) for Bluetooth wireless technology (JABWT or JSR82). I think it isn't free but you can download non-commerical use demo.

avetanaBluetooth is a JSR-82 implementation provides Bluetooth functionalities to Java software in a standardized way. avetanaBluetooth is available for Windows (98SE - XP SP2), MacOS X, Linux and WM
2003SE - WM5 plattforms. but it is'nt free you can download demo that will expire after 14 days, it Force you to connect to limited number of PC because you must specify the BT addresses of PC that you want to connect to.


BlueCove is a LGPL licensed JSR-82 implementation on Java Standard Edition (J2SE) that currently interfaces with the Microsoft Bluetooth stack. Originally developed by Intel Research and currently maintained by volunteers . you can download src code from
http://bluecove.sourceforge.net/ . I used before at VIDETA. it's based on Microsoft Bluetooth stack, To know is your BT supported by windows bluetooth stack check this list http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=841803
If you found your BT in the list, Congratulation you are lucky so consult the BT vendor's website to know how to configure your BT to be adapted by windows BT stack. In my VIDETA case I use Toshiba Corporation bluetooth specification 2.0, 1.2, 1.1 but I must configure it to be supported by windows bluetooth stack because the default is Widcomm stack and BlueCove didn't support it.
hopefully I cleared something to you.

Salam
