Continuing the last blog entry I can say it is impossible attach to an existing interface (with help of RConnection) in such a way that I can listen to all passing packets (or rather those sockets that I don’t own).

What is keeping me busy is creating Bluetooth® IAP (internet access point) after what I can get all the TCP/IP packets incoming to that IAP. As you read my blog I need this to transfer TCP packets over Bluetooth.

As I try to create BT IAP I mostly face with articles and forums related to distant 6th and 7th versions of Symbian.
Like this one.
 

Figure 1 – list of IAPs.

In Symbian_OS_Overview_To_Networking I’ve read that on Symbian OS there are Serial Protocol Modules (CSY) that are used to implement software serial port services. The Serial Protocol Module API (cs_port.h) allows developing new CSY modules.
Theoretically one can substitute the already existing BTCOMM.CSY with new module.

So current questions are:

1. Is it really possible (I didn’t find yet) to create new serial protocol modules (CSY). And how-to.
2. How to bind new IAP (see figure 1) with a new CSY so one can listen to all it’s packets.

And yes, have a nice Holidays!
