I wanted to ask you a question about the ODS. I'm sorry I've not be able to investigate this first hand but I'm still waiting on the Debian package to be completed so havnt been able to just yet. I'm trying to understand what OSD can achieve to see if it fits my requiments. Am I correct to assume that due to this being a DBUS service that it is totaly asynchoronous? in as much that I would be able to push a file (in theory) to multiple devices almost symultaniously? For instance, I regularly find myself sending a file to both myself and my colleague in the office here, it would be great if I could build so small app so that it transmits the file to both phones at the same time. Does ODS offer this kind of functionality? Thanks Tadas, Robert Hello Tadas,

They come as a prize for using dbus-glib bindings :D Anyway, I recon this feature will make it to 0.3 release (which will hopefully also feature capability object support in server).

That is, transport specific stuff should only be used in Manager object. I just noticed, that I did a bad thing in 0.2 release, where Server.Start method has bluetooth specific option (require_pairing). That's bad. Thinks like ‘/org/openobex/hci1′ are bad too. The only way to go is to add one more argument to CreateBluetoothSession function. ods has to be as much transport independent as possible.

We can't add a stuff to the bluez api as ods isn't part of BlueZ. Maybe the get_object thing makes sense, but instead of '/org/openobex' I would use '/org/bluez/hciX' then we are more friendly with BlueZ api.

I guess that one way in which you could implement this would be to add a fromDevice() method which sets a device to be used. This would work nicely as it wouldnt break anyone using previous versions as it could default to the default bluez adapter. Alternativly, perhaps it could be integrated in a similar way to the bluez adapter interfaces where we create an object such as get_object('org.openobex', '/org/openobex/hci1') or somthing along those lines? Cheers Tadas, Robert Thanks for the reply Tadas,
