J2ME Bluetooth UUID Help

[blundellp]

Can I post J2ME questions here?

I was just wondering can someone help me with my problem.

I'm trying to create my own Bluetooth service, the code is:-

    public class createBluetoothService extends Thread
    {
       public void run()
       {
        try
        {
            StreamConnectionNotifier myNotifier = (StreamConnectionNotifier)
            Connector.open("btspp://localhost: 033BFE40DD46464eBDFC981D229E51CE;name=NightOutService; authorize=false; authenticate=false; encrypt=false");
            StreamConnection conn = myNotifier.acceptAndOpen();
        }
        catch(Exception e)
        {
            System.out.println("btspp error" +e);
        }
       } 
    }

I get the error,

"
btspp errorjava.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Malformed URL: btspp://localhost: 033BFE40DD46464eBDFC981D229E51CE;name=NightOutService; authorize=false; authenticate=false; encrypt=false
"

I think it's something to do with the UUID I'm using however i've tried various different ones, this one was created from the program

Well, not sure I can help with your question that is TMHO more Bluetooth question than a Java One.
What I can, however, say is that :
- In java, by convention, a class identifier begins with an upperCase. Your class name should be : "CreateBluetoothService"
- I downloaded the UUID generator you linked to and read that in the documentation :

The GUID Generator component lets you generate globally unique identifiers, or GUIDs, that you can use to identify your Microsoft® ActiveX® classes, objects, and interfaces.

As is, I'm not shure the generated GUID is bluetooth compatible...

Ah yeah thats just my slack eye missing the capital letter thanks

Ah I see about hte microsoft GUID, i'll keep looking, I also found

http://www.famkruithof.net/uuid/uuidgen

and it fails with this UUID aswell, annoying I'll keep looking for some more information on this and find a Bluetooth forum hehe thanks for the help

That's a bad URL exception, are you sure you are not missing the port?

Cheers,

With Bluetooth connections the port number is the UUID, I found the error I had a rogue semi colon on the end of my string and it also doesn't like the blank spaces,
thanks for your time and effort
