OS X with GnuBox

A Howto and another one

The incoming connection strategy doesn't seem to work - ctest.txt reports errors.

Setting up an outgoing socket in the Bluetooth/Sharing tab works, and ctest.txt confirms a positive connection status.

The problem that remains is that I get an "error -36" when I try to connect to the mac. That means that the pppd is closing the connection, more info about the error codes here. So it seems that the pppd is doing something wrong on my installation...

Non-Caching Bluetooth Resolver

For our project, we need to scan for bluetooth beacons. The default nokia implementation caches the names of the bluetooth devices, so the update speed isn't acceptable for us.

The modified aosocketnativenew.pyd by Albert Huang does this. It doesn't cache the device list but also doesn't cache the names, but I guess we can live with that.

This is a Python S60 developer's blog. From our gained experience we will post code snippets hints and tips to share for everyone.
