How to send a file from wearable to phone over BT

How to send a file from wearable to phone over BT

BY 13 Dec 2019 Native Application Development

Hi developers!

I have a simple audio recorder applicaiton, and when i stop the recording, I wish to imidietely send the recorded file over BT to my phone.

However I am missing something, and I don’t know what.

It’s based on sample native ui applicaiton and here is what I’ve done so far:

 

in

    _app_resume_cb():

i setup the following callbacks:

 

    int error_code = bt_adapter_foreach_bonded_device(bonded_device_cb, NULL);
    dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "bt_adapter_foreach_bonded_device. error code: %s", get_error_message(error_code));

    error_code = bt_socket_set_connection_state_changed_cb(socket_connection_state_changed_cb,NULL);
    dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "registered bt_socket_set_connection_state_changed_cb. error code: %s", get_error_message(error_code));

 

then in my bonded_device_cb() i read the remote_address and service_uuid

 

static bool bonded_device_cb(bt_device_info_s *device_info, void *user_data)
{
    dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "got a bonded device! \n"
            "remote_address: %s \n"
            "remote_name: %s \n"
            "service_uuid: %s \n"
            "is_bonded: %d \n"
            "is_connected: %d \n"
            "is_authorized: %d \n",
            device_info->remote_address,
            device_info->remote_name,
            *device_info->service_uuid,
            device_info->is_bonded,
            device_info->is_connected,
            device_info->is_authorized);
    remote_address = malloc((sizeof(device_info->remote_address)*strlen(device_info->remote_address))+1);
    service_uuid = malloc((sizeof(*device_info->service_uuid)*strlen(*device_info->service_uuid))+1);
    strcpy(remote_address, device_info->remote_address);
    strcpy(service_uuid, *device_info->service_uuid);
    dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "copied!! remote_address: %s, service_uuid: %s", remote_address, service_uuid);
    return true;
}

 

to later use it back in _app_resume_cb() in order to use bt_socket_connect_rfcomm():

 

    dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "remote_address: %s, service_uuid: %s", remote_address, service_uuid);

    error_code = bt_socket_connect_rfcomm(remote_address, service_uuid);
    dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "bt_socket_connect_rfcomm. error code: %s", get_error_message(error_code));

 

so the connection error_code is successful, and in my socket_connection_state_changed_cb() i read the socket_fd:

static void socket_connection_state_changed_cb(int result, bt_socket_connection_state_e connection_state,
                                                bt_socket_connection_s *connection, void *user_data)
{
    dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "socket connection state changed \n"
            "result: %s "
            "connection_state: %d "
            "socket_fd: %d "
            "server_fd: %d "
            "remote_address: %s "
            "local_role: %d "
            "service_uuid: %s ",
            get_error_message(result),
            connection_state,
            connection->socket_fd,
            connection->server_fd,
            connection->remote_address,
            connection->local_role,
            connection->service_uuid);

    socket_fd = connection->socket_fd;
}

 

to then use in sending data using bt_socket_send_data(). I send the data after pressing the stop record button:

 

...
/* Stop the recorder and save the recorded data to a file */
        if (_recorder_expect_state(g_recorder, RECORDER_STATE_RECORDING)
                || _recorder_expect_state(g_recorder, RECORDER_STATE_PAUSED))
        {
            char *filez;
            recorder_get_filename(g_recorder, &filez);

            stop_recorder();
            dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "stopped recording");
            Eina_Bool shared = EINA_FALSE;
            Eina_File * ein_file = eina_file_open(filez, shared);
            size_t fil_size = eina_file_size_get(ein_file);
            const char * fil_name = eina_file_filename_get(ein_file);
            dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "****opened file?, filez: %s fil_size: %d, fil_name: %s", filez, fil_size, fil_name);
            error_code = bt_socket_send_data(socket_fd, data, fil_size);
            dlog_print(DLOG_INFO, LOG_TAG, "****sending file!!!!! number of bytes written: %d", error_code);
...

 

and in the logs i can see the file name and size printed correctly.

some logs printouts:

got a bonded device!  remote_address: 34:2D:0D:12:BB:89  remote_name: Galaxy S8  service_uuid: 00001105-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB  is_bonded: 1  is_connected: 1  is_authorized: 0 
socket connection state changed  result: Successful connection_state: 0 socket_fd: 40 server_fd: -1 remote_address: 34:2D:0D:12:BB:89 local_role: 2 service_uuid: 00001105-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB 
...
remote_address: 34:2D:0D:12:BB:89, service_uuid: 00001105-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB
bt_socket_connect_rfcomm. error code: Successful
...
****opened file?, filez: /opt/usr/media/Documents/AUDIO_2019_12_12_18_39_27.3gp fil_size: 835, fil_name: /opt/usr/media/Documents/AUDIO_2019_12_12_18_39_27.3gp
****sending file!!!!! number of bytes written: 835

 

On the phone I never get request to “receive a file”, unless it’s done “silently”? in which i doubt highly. I tried to search for the file manually but to no avail.

Please tell me what am I missing!

 

Best regards,

Adam
