Delphi and Bluetooth

[fatman]

Hi Folks,

I try to connect my android-tablet with my notebook via bluetooth.
I use Delphi for developing applications on the notebook. Has anyone heard of a good bluetooth component for Delphi?

Any hints are welcome!

Thanks... Fatman

Hello fatman,

Glad to know there are other Delphi users out there...

Bluetooth, using SPP (serial port profile), will act just like a COM port. Allow whatever utility the OS uses to turn on BT and then establish a pairing between the notebook and tablet. Note which COM port number is assigned. Then, from Delphi open a COM port in the usual way (I use TMS Async) but there are any number of free components that do the same thing.

Best Regards,
Paul

There are alot of components you use ZylSerialPort or if you have JEDI components library installed (open source), or nrComm Lib or wcl (the best use)

I use TComport. Works fine.
