Client Support (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
An OBEX client initiates an underlying transport connection to an OBEX server. The following commands are used to establish and release this connection:
- IObexDevice::Connect enables the client to connect to an OBEX server through the OBEX layer. To obtain a list of available devices, the client calls the IObex::EnumDevices method. Each device exposes a Connect method. If an OBEX server does not exist on the device, the connection fails. Transport-specific information is hidden from the user; only the name and address is exposed.
- IObexDevice::Disconnect releases the client/server connection and frees associated resources.
Once a connection is established, the client can issue the following commands:
- IObexDevice::Put pushes data from the local device to the OBEX server.
- IObexDevice::Get pulls data from the OBEX server, providing the server allows this function.
- IObexDevice::Abort terminates a multipacket Put or Get method.
- IObexDevice::SetPath sets the current browsing directory on the OBEX server or creates a new directory.
