New
announcements from Bruce Hopkins for Java Bluetooth developers:
I just wanted to let everyone know that JavaBluetooth.com has
been
updated. The SDKs page has undergone the most updates, and now there are
a whopping 12 different SDKs that you can use for Java and Bluetooth
development. A lot of them support the JSR-82 in some form or fashion,
but others are available in other flavors in order to support various
platforms. Here's the link:
http://www.javabluetooth.com
Coming soon in 2005...
Next year, we're planning to release the JB22, a complete JSR-82
hardware and software development kit that will be the one-stop-shop for
anyone who wants to get into Java and Bluetooth development with actual
Bluetooth devices, but doesn't know where to start. It will feature a
new getting started guide, and plenty of example code.
More details will come later, but if you're interested in knowing when
we release the JB22, please send me a note.
Thanks,
Bruce Hopkins

A
few announcements from Bruce Hopkins for Java Bluetooth developers:
I have a few announcements to make for JSR-82 developers:
First of all, the Avetana Java Bluetooth SDK now supports OBEX. So, if
you're tired of creating Bluetooth applications with only half of the
JSR-82 API (i.e. javax.bluetooth.*) you can now take heart. You now use
the javax.obex.* classes for your Bluetooth applications.
Secondly, Avetana has really shattered the price barrier with their
latest version of their SDK. The MacOS X and Win-32 version of their SDK
is only 25 euros, which is currently about $32 USD. So for all those
final project students out there who have a limited budget, then this
may be the SDK for you.
Don't forget, the Linux version of the SDK is free!
Have fun!
Bruce

I
have been working on the course project web page. It is not ready yet, but
you can continue your project search from the projects list given
here. These projects are
from the www.sourceforge.net. This
site is the world's largest Open Source software development website, with
the largest repository of Open Source code and applications available
on the Internet. |
|
I'll publish the course project web page on
Monday, 22th of November. |
|
You will submit a hard and soft copy of
your Project Proposal next week until 26 November 2004,
Friday. |

Tozal's course web site regularly. He will make his announcements on his
page. The homework announcements, solutions, some program samples and
documents related to his activities will be posted here. You should visit
his web site frequently. |
