The JavaBluetooth Stack / Discussion / Help: installation instuctions for newbie

Sol Ackerman - 2004-02-11

Hey everyone,
I've downloaded the bluetooth Stack, but I don't see any .jar's and I don't know how to install the stack. Any help would be appreciated.

  I'm stuck on this too...
  
  if i do that i get:-
  
  javax.org : no such file or directory
  added manifest
  
  What's that mean. And where's the manifest? Scuse the newbie questions, but I'm floundering here. I was going to try and add the javax.bluetooth files to my jdk 1.4->src.zip->javax folder, but I don't really understand what I'm doing.
  
  Help!

  Of course, you have to compile JavaBluetooth first.
  I usually don't compile into the source directory but into a 'bin' directory or something.
  Goto the directory with the compiled classes (there should be 2 subdirectories: javax and org) and type:
  jar cvf javabluetooth.jar javax org
  
  Note that there is _no_ dot between javax and org.
  Enjoy!

  hi there,
  I too am new to java bluetooth stack but i reckon it will make all the difference in my project. I intend to setup a bluetooth link with my P900 using JSR-82 on the phone and J2SE (with this stack of course) on the server side.
  But got a few questions I'd like answering please... once you have packaged the classes into Jar files as the last post above suggests... what do you do with the jar files? I'm guessing they have to be placed in the lib folder or something and classpaths have to be set?
  On another note, i intend to develop using a USB bluetooth device (MSI 6967) under windows (would go linux only if i have to)... but other posts in this forum suggest this is not supported... surely this cant be. The majority of bluetooth devices are USB... and those that aren't are expensive (serials, pcmcia) in comparison.... thats a large potential to be missing out on. then again, those posts were quite old i think... anyone tried this stack on USB device under windows? thanks again for your help, much appreciated :)
