bluez-dbus

bluetooth library for linux OSes using DBus and bluez.

This project was inspired by tinyb, but does not require any wrapper library as it is based on a newer version of dbus-java which uses jnr-unixsocket.

This library has been tested with Ubuntu 16.04.4 (AMD64) and bluez library 5.54.

Starting with version 0.1.0 of this library Java 8 is required (previous version used Java 7).

If you want to use filedescriptor passing in any bluez method, you have to add Robert Middleton's dbus-java-nativefd library to your project:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.rm5248</groupId>
    <artifactId>dbus-java-nativefd</artifactId>
    <version>1.0</version>
</dependency>

To build a newer bluez-library for Ubuntu (16.04 has an older version than 5.50):

---

1. Download new bluez library from http://www.bluez.org/download/
2. Install Ubuntu build essentials:
       sudo apt-get install build-essential
3. Install required additional dependencies:
       sudo apt-get install libdbus-1-dev libudev-dev libical-dev libreadline-dev checkinstall libglib2.0-dev
4. Extract the downloaded bluez-tarball:
       tar xfvJ bluez-5.50.tar.xz
5. Run ./configure in the extracted bluez tarball:
       ./configure --prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/lib --enable-manpages
6. run checkinstall in bluez tarball directory: sudo checkinstall
7. Answer 'y' to question if default docs should be created
8. Enter a description (e.g. New bluez library), press enter and then CTRL+D
9. In checkinstall:
     Go to Menu option 13 (Replaces)
     Enter: bluez-obexd, bluez-cups, bluez-hcidump, bluez-btsco, bluez-tools
10. Press Enter to start the build
11. Install the generated .deb files:
        sudo dpkg -i bluez_5.50-1_amd64.deb
