Yet again a bug-fix release. Turns out that in 0.3.2 filename to UTF16 conversion bug was introduced (remote devices got garbled filenames). This is fixed now. Release also includes manual page for obex-data-server and some build fixes.
ChangeLog:

• Fix filename conversion to UTF-16 (bug introduced in 0.3.2)
• Add manual page
• When –enable-system-config build option is used, change DBus .service file accordingly
• Small build fixes

One more bug-fix release. Sockets were not properly closed in 0.3.2.
ChangeLog:

• Properly close sockets for Session and ServerSession objects

This is one more bugfix release. It includes many memory leak fixes, improved error reporting and most notably Nokia UUID workaround (uses different FTP service UUID for some Nokia devices).
ChangeLog:

• Reduce compiler warnings (fixes bug #98)
• Fix ServerSession Accept/Reject (bug #54, only works with patched openobex)
• Use different FTP UUID for some Nokia devices (bug #55)
• Don’t try to remove service record when it is not registered (bug #79)
• Check OBEX Target header for FTP sessions (bug #81)
• Disable FTP specific commands when OPP is used (bug #82)
• Use UTF-8 filenames in folder listing objects (bug #78)
• Improve OBEX error reporting (bugs #85, #86, #87, #88)
• Fix crashers on exit (bugs #77, #83)
• Portability fixes (bug #91)
• Check connection ID for FTP session (bugs #90, #92)
• Send empty Name header when using ChangeCurrentFolderToRoot (bug #100)
• Don’t try to access memory regions that were already freed (bug #74).
  Also fixes a long-standing segfault issue (bug #46)

This release doesn’t include any API changes.

This is a bugfix release. It includes several fixes for crashers and some other minor changes.
ChangeLog:

• Fix two crashers (bugs #57, #59)
• Add SDP record support for PBAP server (no real PBAP support yet) (bug #60)
• Fix naming issue in configure.in

This release doesn’t include any API changes, so it’s safe to use with latest bluez-gnome. Highly recommended update for distros.

Documentation

obex-data-server needs some documentation like manual page (bug #49), building HOWTO, using Session HOWTO, using Server Howto and possibly some other stuff. All this should be in wiki, so that it’s easy to find. Feel free to contribute.

obex-data-server 0.3 released: http://tadas.dailyda.com/software/obex-data-server-0.3.tar.gz.

This release features API change regarding Server object and removes some memory leaks. ChangeLog:

• API change: Manager.CreateBluetoothServer(string source_address, string pattern, boolean require_pairing)
• API change: Server.Start(string path, boolean allow_write, boolean auto_accept)
• update ods-server-test.py according to new API
• Remove some memory leaks

As you can see, require_pairing argument was moved from Server.Start() to Manager.CreateBluetoothServer(). Introduction of require_pairing in 0.2 version violated obex-data-server architecture by having transport specific code in object other than Manager. This would have made implementing other transports in future impossible.

Sorry for the confusion.. Shit happens

obex-data-server 0.2 released: http://tadas.dailyda.com/software/obex-data-server-0.2.tar.gz.

This release features server enhancements and several bug fixes. ChangeLog:

• Distribute python tests (ods-session-test.py and ods-server-test.py).
• Make object paths lowercase.
• API change: Server.Start(string path, boolean allow_write, boolean require_pairing, boolean auto_accept).
• New methods: Server.Accept(), Server.Reject().
• Fix server SDP record lifetime (now exists between Start() and Stop()).
• Make D-Bus system config file optional (enable with –enable-system-config configure option).
• Exclude dot files from folder listings.

See D-Bus API docs for info how to use new Server.Start() and Accept/Reject methods.

obex-data-server 0.1 released: http://tadas.dailyda.com/software/obex-data-server-0.1.tar.gz.

This is first official release of obex-data-server. obex-data-server is D-Bus service providing high-level OBEX client and server side functionality (currently supports OPP and FTP profiles and Bluetooth transport).

Bug tracker: http://bugs.muiline.com (choose “obex-data-server” project)
API documentation: http://svn.muiline.com/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/obex-data-server/trunk/dbus-api.txt

Minor API changes which happened just before 0.1 release:
1) uint64 is used for file sizes.
Affected methods/signals:

Session.GetTransferInfo();
Session.TransferStarted();
Session.TransferProgress();
ServerSession.GetTransferInfo();
ServerSession.TransferStarted();
ServerSession.TransferProgress().

2) OBJECT_PATH (”o”) D-Bus type is used for object paths (previously, STRING was used).
Affected methods/signals:

Manager.CreateBluetoothSession();
Manager.CreateBluetoothServer();
Manager.GetSessionInfo();
Manager.GetServerInfo();

Manager.SessionRemoved();
Server.GetServerSessionInfo();
Server.SessionCreated();
Server.SessionRemoved();

First such app is bluetooth-sendto which is gonna be part of bluez-gnome. It’s a Object Push client which can be used to send one or more files to another Bluetooth device. I’m glad that I could reuse some older code from gnome-bluetooth for this application, hence it’s feature-complete already.

And now for some screenies:

sending file with bluetooth sendto

sending several files, file is rejected by remote device

Now I’m not so sure when one could expect this app to show up in official bluez-gnome package, but I’m working on getting obex-data-server for it’s first public release and only then it might be the time.
