Loading the stack

This document shows you how to load the Bluetooth stack.

The Bluetooth stack needs to be loaded before you can use Bluetooth.

The following shows you how to load the Bluetooth stack.

Basic Procedures

1. Set up required objects and literals.

   RSocketServ iSockSvr;
   _LIT(KPDDName, "EUART1");
   _LIT(KLDDName, "ECOMM");

2. Start C32.

   TInt rerr = KErrNone;
   rerr = StartC32();// For any Serial comms

3. Load the drivers

   User::LoadPhysicalDevice(KPDDName);
   User::LoadLogicalDevice(KLDDName);

4. Connect the socket server

   iSockSvr.Connect();

5. Configure the protocol

   TProtocolDesc iProtocolInfo;
   TRequestStatus status;
   iSockSvr.FindProtocol(_L("L2CAP"), iProtocolInfo);

6. Start the protocol

   iSockSvr.StartProtocol(iProtocolInfo.iAddrFamily,iProtocolInfo.iSockType,iProtocolInfo.iProtocol, status);
   User::WaitForRequest(status);

At this point the Bluetooth stack is running. Other components can now use the Bluetooth hardware module.

The Remote Control Framework loads the stack automatically when started.
