This method is added to the current supported methods: USB debugging and wireless. It was not a simple task. The result however seems to be quite good. Up to 3 simultaneous connections are created and maintained for the following components: B4A-Bridge, visual designer and debugger. After the release of the next version I plan to create a simple Bluetooth desktop server that will make it simpler to build applications that need to communicate with a local computer.

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 15, 2012 #7 B4A-Bridge (device side) is written in Basic4android. I will post the updated code once it is released. The desktop side includes a commercial library so the source cannot be released and it is also not possible to share it as a library. Upvote 0
