I am a newbie to bluetooth and this is the thing i want to do , I want to to get the device information that gets connected to the Bluetooth on my pc and write the info in a file. which api should i use and how to implement . I came across bluecove but on a few searches i found that bluecove doesn't work on 64 bit pc's. what should i do now .i want this to work on both 32 bit and 64 bit pcs.

The bluetooth apis recommended in the oracle tutorials are included in the JSR 82 API specification.

I think though, that the latest release of the BlueCove (2.1.1)includes the driver for windows 7 64.

check:

http://snapshot.bluecove.org/distribution/download/2.1.1-SNAPSHOT/2.1.1-SNAPSHOT.62/

You can download the JSR 82 specification and source code here:

A good oracle tutorial how to start is:

And here is also a good practical example:

  • the JSR-82 standard is supported by various libraries. I am not sure but I think Atinav works fine on 64 bit. – Dyonisos Dec 30 '11 at 10:08

    The last stable (and I think final forever is 2.1). We use it for 64 bit arch. the project is now here: https://code.google.com/archive/p/bluecove/downloads – Tony Chemit Feb 04 '16 at 10:44
