Hi, this is my first post, and so far i Have an application which shows/discovers all of the devices via bluetooth. The problem is i need to automatically pair all of the to send a file to all devices. Can anyone help?

correct me if im wrong, you are into creating an application that sends a file to all the discovered devices

there are many ways to do this. if your discovered devices is in the combo box you could pass it into an array and perform your sending method until your array is empty. i recommend you to use BRECHAM OBEX and using the put in sending the files. there are examples in the codeplex(32feet) on how to do the sending of files.

Assuming you're going to use ObexWebRequest we've considered adding a method on ObexWebRequest called SetBluetoothPin see http://32feet.codeplex.com/WorkItem/View.aspx?WorkItemId=23195

At the moment consider using BluetoothSecurity.SetPin or BluetoothWin32Authentication.
 

 Hi,

I have a similar application than run on vista with Microsoft Bluetooth stacks. My application is simple, just need to discover devices, then automatic receive text file from the devices. Is it possible that my application receive the files without pairing?  

Yup should be ok.  If you don't set the Authenticate flag (the default) on the BluetoothClient/Listener than the remote device should be able to connect to the service without bonding required etc.

Hi, thanks for reply.

The Authenticate flag is set on the client side? But my application is on server side, i dont have client side program. mobile phone will be the client, and they send will a note to server. I'm using 32Feet 2.5, which sample i should refer so that i can receive text file from mibile phone without pairing? And if possible, can tell me how to receive file automatically? I mean without clicking on any button.

 

Thanks in advance.
