Bluetooth for Windows/Mac workaround?

[Duff]

Hi,

If Qt is not going to support Bluetooth on the Windows and Mac platforms then is there a workaround for integrating Bluetooth into my Qt application? How are you guys doing it?

Thanks

Brian

Is it possible to write the bluetooth functionality I need in Visual Studio/XCode and then import it into my Qt project as a linked library?

Yes it absolutely is. I just had to do a bluetooth pairing project under windows and I was pretty much forced to use winapi to do it. Qt bluetooth stuff doesn't work for me on osx/windows or linux. I still used Qt for it's general awesomeness and to provide the service.

Anyway, you can write a lib, or you can just use #ifdef Q_OS_WIN to wrap your windows specific code, or other platform defs for whatever platform you are on.

Okay, thanks ambershark, I'll pursue that line of thinking then. :-)
