Connect bluetooth device per script

[bthuser]

Hi folks,

can you please help me with scripting Autoit? I want to connect a bluetooth mouse via script.

Now I start bthprops.cpl and send keystrokes, but that's too fault-prone.

How can I do this using Windows API?

I need to:

- discover bluetooth device

- connect "

- ???

Can someone help me doing that?

Thank you.

- discover bluetooth device

I can only help you with this part, check my Bluetooth Finder Tool (see my signature)...

Oh, thank you rudi and MKISH for your help.

The MSDN information is very confusing. But i'll try it...

I didn't get it. Is somebody of you experienced with connecting Bluetooth devices, DllCalls and structs?

I think the key is BluetoothRegisterForAuthenticationEx(), BluetoothSendAuthenticationResponseEx() and BluetoothUnregisterAuthentication().

To fully utilize the bluetooth of your PC and perform tasks like file-transfer on phone etc. you need WinSock and the OBEX protocol (you will have to implement it by yourself or some third party program, since MS doesn't provide any way). OR you could use the COM ports as well (easiest approach for me)

I think I'll get back to writing more code on using Bluetooth with AU3 someday. Till then, good luck.

Thanks, MKISH. I only wanted to connect the Bluetooth mouse to my computer.
