BLE Plugins for iOS and Android?

General

Hello all,

Does anybody have any insight into https://tracker.xojo.com/xojoinc/xojo/-/issues/71212?

Since this is obviously not in the pre-release of 2024R3 and no mention anywhere else, does anyone know of a plugin that would work?

Thanks,
Tim

I’ve done work with CoreBluetooth in iOS using just declares… in fact my initial foray into this was the XDC attendance app such that it behaved like an iBeacon and caused the XDC Wallet Passes to appear on user’s devices lock screens when they got close to the registration table.

It would be helpful to know more specifics of what you are trying to accomplish though because CoreBluetooth is not a small framework and the description “so the device can communicate with other BlueTooth enabled devices” is a little vague.

For instance, I’ve got an iOS & macOS framework for sale on Xojo’s Store that lets you use Apple’s Multipeer Connectivity framework. That connects between iOS & macOS devices using whatever is available between the two devices… Cellular, Wifi or Bluetooth, but it only works with a limited number of nearby devices at a time. Suitable for playing games with nearby people but not broadcasting to a whole room.
