Blue Tooth Support In Windows XP Embedded.

Dear All,

Good Morning! Have a Nice Day.

Does Windows XP Embedded support Blue Tooth Devices? Or there any Blue
Tooth Stack available for Windows XP Embedded?

What are all needed, if need to give support to a Blue Tooth Keyboard
and Mouse in Windows XP Embedded?

Please help me in this regard.

With regards,
Ranga.

Ranga,

As far as I know it is not there yet (not in SP1). However, things get changed in SP2.

Shall we componentise the BlueTooth Component in XPPro to XPe?

Have anyone componentised it?

Are there any guidelines for componentise the Bluetooth Driver Stack
from XP pro to XPe?

Please help me.

Where will the SP2 be released?

Thansk KM for your inputs.

Ranga,

> Shall we componentise the BlueTooth Component in XPPro to XPe?

If you need it immediately, the answer is Yes. I don't know, however, anything about the legal side of it (can you use XP Pro stuff
that is not in XPE Repository in your image without additional licensing?).

> Have anyone componentised it?

I don't think so. But check www.xpefiles.com.

I haven't worked on that and therefore can't help you with it, sorry. My guess is that you should be pretty familiar with the
BlueTooth stack implmented recently by MS for XP Pro.

> Where will the SP2 be released?

Here is a quote from Andy Allred [MS]: "The embedded team's goal is a 30 day delta from the full product when it RTMs, so about a
month after XP-Pro SP2 ships.".
MS will tell you the exact dates.

Hello,

Can anyone from Microsoft confirm that BlueTooth stack is not
supported in XPe SP1, till now.

Will the support for Blue Tooth be provided as QFE? Could Any one
Microsoft confirm this?

Please help me in this regard.

Thanks KM for your response.

Have you tried this on Windows XP SP1?
If it is working then you can make it work on XPe as well, I never used this
sorry.

Ranga,

Some very old chat from October 2002:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/chats/emb...dded_101502.asp

Host Guest_Jon_MS
Q: Will XPE have USB2, Firewire, Bluetooth support?

Host Guest_Jon_MS
A: We do support USB 2.0 and Firewire. Bluetooth will be supported in the
near future.


But if they did not implemented it in XPe by now, then you should do it
yourself.

Regards,
Slobodan

As I mention, SP2 will most likely have the component in it. Although MS
plans are subject to change.

Here is XP SP2 Bluetooth 1.1 announce:
