bluetooth XP

I need to know where to find the the actual values for the following GUID for MS Bluetooth Stack using socket programming.

GUID_L2CAP_Event_Info
GUID_HCI_Event_Info
GUID_Radio_In_Range
GUID_Radio_Out_Of_Range

It would be nice to find the header files for the Bluetooth SDK.

    %Program Files%\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\PlatformSDK directory. is the path for VS 2005

  • Hintshigen

    For VS2005, the Platform SDK can be found under the %Program Files%\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\PlatformSDK directory. Thanks,

    Where can I find this Platform SDK Well, my question might be strange but I don't have such a directory (PROGRAMFILES_DIRECTORY\Microsoft SDK) and when I try to make a project and include ws2bth.h or the other Bluetooth headers, I can't build since I don't these headers... (For PC only I don't have, for PPC I can, but I'm interested in making a PPC client/PC server).

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    For Windows XP the bluetooth headers and documentation are included in the Platform SDK. Once installed you'll find the headers here by default:-
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDK\include

    BluetoothAPIs.h  - contains the functions for managing devices etc
    bthdef.h - contains defined Guids, structures etc required
    ws2bth.h - Winsock extensions for bluetooth

    Note that the APIs differ substantially between Windows XP and Windows CE implementations.

    The Platform SDK components shipped with VS2005 are only "core" functionality and don't include the relevant Bluetooth headers. You can download the SDK here:-

    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx FamilyID=a55b6b43-e24f-4ea3-a93e-40c0ec4f68e5&displaylang=en

    But it can be a pretty huge download. If you are an MSDN subscriber you'll have it on disc.

    - WSnetbs.h
    - WSNwLink.h
    - WSPiApi.h
    - wsrm.h

    There is all what I have in something related to sock or winsock or ws... and searching *.h containing BTH... no ws*.h files :S

    Thank you all very much in advance for your help.
