Send a file bluetooth

A number of people seem to have a problem using RSendAs to send a file via Bluetooth but its more or less the same as sending any other message.

To start, you need to get hold of the bluetooth MTM UID, its in "SendUiConsts.h"

Then its simply a case of:

Opening the SendAs session
Creating a message using the session
Adding the file as an attachment
Sending the message

void SendFileL(const TDesC& aFilename)
    {
   // 1. Open session
   RSendAs session;
   User::LeaveIfError(session.Connect());
   CleanupClosePushL(session);

   // 2. Create message
   RSendAsMessage message;
   message.CreateL(session, KSenduiMtmBtUid);
   CleanupClosePushL(message);

    // 3. Add attachment
    TRequestStatus status;
    message.AddAttachment(aFilename.FullName(), status);
    User::WaitForRequest(status);

    // 4. Send message
    if (status.Int() == KErrNone)
        {
        CleanupStack::Pop(&message);
        message.LaunchEditorAndCloseL();
        }
   else
       CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(&message);

   CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(&session);
}
