Bluetooth Support

[CenturyMan1979]

Hey Everyone,

Just checking to see if there is support for bluetooth in LiveCode. I want to have a mobile app and desktop app communicate over bluetooth as the user may not always be in a location with wi-fi access for them to communicate over.

If bluetooth is not supported is there another method that can be used to connect a mobile app to a desktop app directly?

I'm looking for the same thing, i.e. any way to get data to and from my Livecode created Android app. Bluetooth doesn't work and I can't find any way to use dropbox, email, or any of the other methods of sharing data. For that matter, the clipboard isn't even supported. This seems like a pretty common need. Any ideas?

If you use a native field instead of a LC field, the OS should support clipboard automatically. There is also a Dropbox library http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?t=12549 generously contributed by Guglielmo. I haven't needed to try it, but it's written entirely in LC so I'd think it would work on any OS, including mobile.
