Members| All Members | Constructors | Methods | Properties | ||
| Icon | Member | Description |
|---|---|---|
 | BluetoothClient()()() |
Creates a new instance of BluetoothClient.
|
| BluetoothClient(BluetoothEndPoint) |
Initializes a new instance of the BluetoothClient class and binds it to the specified local endpoint.
|
 | Active |
Gets or set a value that indicates whether a connection has been made.
|
 | Authenticate |
Gets or sets the authentication state of the current connect or behaviour to use when connection is established.
|
| Available |
Gets the amount of data that has been received from the network and is available to be read.
|
| BeginConnect(BluetoothAddress, Guid, AsyncCallback, Object) |
Begins an asynchronous request for a remote host connection.
The remote host is specified by a BluetoothAddress and a service identifier (Guid).
|
| BeginConnect(BluetoothEndPoint, AsyncCallback, Object) |
Begins an asynchronous request for a remote host connection.
The remote host is specified by a BluetoothEndPoint.
|
| Client |
Gets or sets the underlying Socket.
|
| Close()()() |
Disposes this BluetoothClient instance without closing the underlying connection.
|
| Connect(BluetoothEndPoint) |
Connects a client to a specified endpoint.
|
| Connect(BluetoothAddress, Guid) |
Connects the client to a remote Bluetooth host using the specified Bluetooth address and service identifier.
|
| Connected |
Gets a value indicating whether the underlying Socket for a BluetoothClient is connected to a remote host.
|
| DiscoverDevices()()() |
Discovers accessible Bluetooth devices and returns their names and addresses.
|
| DiscoverDevices(Int32) |
Discovers accessible Bluetooth devices and returns their names and addresses.
|
| DiscoverDevices(Int32, Boolean, Boolean, Boolean) |
Discovers accessible Bluetooth devices and returns their names and addresses.
|
 | Dispose(Boolean) |
Releases the unmanaged resources used by the BluetoothClient and optionally releases the managed resources.
|
| Dispose()()() | |
| Encrypt |
On unconnected sockets, enforces encryption to establish a connection.
Encryption is only available for authenticated connections.
For incoming connections, a connection for which encryption cannot be established is automatically rejected and returns WSAEHOSTDOWN as the error.
For outgoing connections, the connect function fails with WSAEACCES if encryption cannot be established.
In response, the application may prompt the user to authenticate the two Bluetooth devices before connection.
|
| EndConnect(IAsyncResult) |
Asynchronously accepts an incoming connection attempt.
|
| Equals(Object) | (Inherited from Object.) |
| Finalize()()() |
Frees resources used by the BluetoothClient class.
(Overrides Object.Finalize()()().) |
| GetHashCode()()() | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. GetHashCode()()() is suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table. (Inherited from Object.) |
| GetRemoteMachineName(BluetoothAddress) |
Gets the name of the specified remote device.
|
 | GetRemoteMachineName(Socket) |
Gets the name of a device by a specified socket.
|
| GetStream()()() |
Gets the underlying stream of data.
|
| GetType()()() | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
| InquiryLength |
Amount of time allowed to perform the query.
|
| LinkKey |
Returns link key associated with peer Bluetooth device.
|
| LinkPolicy |
Returns the Link Policy of the current connection.
|
| LocalVersion |
Retrieves the version of the local Bluetooth equipment.
|
| MemberwiseClone()()() | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| Pin |
Sets the PIN associated with the currently connected device.
|
| RemoteMachineName |
Gets the name of the remote device.
|
| SetPin(BluetoothAddress, String) |
Set or change the PIN to be used with a specific remote device.
|
| ToString()()() | (Inherited from Object.) |
RemarksThis class currently only supports devices which use the Microsoft Bluetooth stack such as the Orange SPV E200, devices which use the WidComm stack will not work.
