+Constant definitions
+====================
+
+The class of device definition from the Bluetooth specification divides into
+three different parts. It the major class, the minor class and the service
+classes. The D-Bus interface will always use string constants to identify
+any of these classes.
+
+Service classes positioning, networking, rendering, capturing,
+ object transfer, audio, telephony, information
+
+Major classes miscellaneous, computer, phone, access point,
+ audio/video, peripheral, imaging, wearable, toy,
+ uncategorized
+
+Minor classes computer uncategorized, desktop, server, laptop, handheld,
+ palm, wearable
+
+Minor classes phone uncategorized, cellular, cordless, smart phone,
+ modem, isdn
+
+Minor classes access point fully, 1-17 percent, 17-33 percent,
+ 33-50 percent, 50-67 percent, 67-83 percent,
+ 83-99 percent, not available
+
+Minor classes audio video uncategorized, headset, handsfree,microphone,
+ loudspeaker, headphones, portable audio, car audio,
+ set-top box, hifi audio, vcr, video camera, camcorder,
+ video monitor, video display and loudspeaker,
+ video conferencing, gaming/toy, unknown
+
+Minor classes peripheral uncategorized, keyboard, pointing, combo

+ A connection request has been received on an already
+ connected device.
+
+ ConnectionAttemptFailed
+
+ An unexpected error (other than DeviceUnreachable) error
+ has occured while attempting a connection to a device.

+ NotConnected
+ The remote device is not connected, while the method call
+ would expect it to be, or is not in the expected state to
+ perform the action.
+
+ InProgress
+
+ Error returned if an operation is in progress. Since
+ this is a generic error that can be used in various
+ situations, the error message should be more clear
+ about what is in progress. For example "Bonding in
+ progress".
+
+ InvalidArguments
+
+ The DBUS request does not contain the right number of
+ arguments with the right type, or the arguments are there
+ but their value is wrong, or does not makes sense in the
+ current context.
+
+ OutOfMemory
+
+ Error returned when a memory allocation via malloc()
+ fails. This error is similar to ENOMEM.

+ string GetRevision()
+
+ Returns the revision of the Bluetooth chip. This is a
+ vendor specific value and in most cases it represents
+ the firmware version. This might derive from the HCI
+ revision and LMP subversion values or via extra vendor

+ for GetMode, this method also supports a special
+ parameter value "on" which will change the mode to the
+ previous non-off mode (or do nothing if the current
+ mode isn't "off").
+
+ Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.NoSuchAdapter
+ org.bluez.Error.Failed
+
+ uint32 GetDiscoverableTimeout()
+
+ Returns the discoverable timeout in seconds. A value
+ of zero means that the timeout is disabled and it will
+ stay in discoverable/limited mode forever.
+
+ The default value for the discoverable timeout should
+ be 180 seconds (3 minutes).
+
+ Possible errors: none
+
+ void SetDiscoverableTimeout(uint32 timeout)
+
+ Sets the discoverable timeout in seconds. A value of
+ zero disables the timeout and the adapter would be
+ always discoverable/limited.
+
+ Changing this value doesn't set the adapter into
+ discoverable/limited mode. The SetMode method must be used.
+
+ Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.NotReady
+ org.bluez.Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ boolean IsConnectable()
+
+ Returns true if the local adapter is connectable and
+ false if it is switched off.

+ be returned.
+
+ Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.InvalidArguments
+ org.bluez.Error.UnsupportedMajorClass
+
+ string GetMinorClass()
+
+ Returns the current minor class value for this
+ system where the default major class is "computer".

+
+ dict GetRemoteInfo(string address)
+
+ Returns the properties for a remote device.
+
+ string GetRemoteVersion(string address)
+
+ Get the version info for a remote device. This request
+ returns always this information based on its cached
+ data. The base for this string is the LMP version
+ value and the features for EDR support.
+
+ Not available can be received if the remote device was

+ a cached name. The service daemon is responsible for
+ updating the cache.
+
+ NotAvailable error is returned if the name is not in
+ the cache. But if there is a discovery running, then
+ this function will return RequestDeferred. In this
+ case the service daemon will queue the request and
+ it will try to resolve the name at the next possible
+ opportunity. On success a RemoteNameUpdated signal will
+ be send and if a failure happens it will be indicated by
+ a RemoteNameFailed signal.
+
+ If this is an empty string, the UI might want to
+ display the BD_ADDR instead.
+
+ Example: "00:11:22:33:44:55", "Nokia 770"
+
+ Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.InvalidArguments

+
+ void DisconnectRemoteDevice(string address)
+
+ This method disconnects a specific remote device by
+ terminating the low-level ACL connection. The use of
+ this method should be restricted to administrator
+ use.
+
+ A RemoteDeviceDisconnectRequested signal will be
+ sent and the actual disconnection will only happen 2
+ seconds later. This enables upper-level applications
+ to terminate their connections gracefully before the
+ ACL connection is terminated.
+
+ Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.NotReady
+ org.bluez.Error.Failed
+ org.bluez.Error.NoSuchAdapter
+ org.bluez.Error.InvalidArguments
+ org.bluez.Error.NotConnected

+
+ void CreateBonding(string address)
+
+ This method creates a bonding with a remote device.
+
+ If a link key for this adapter already exists, this
+ procedure should fail instead of trying to create a
+ new pairing.
+
+ If no connection to the remote device exists, a
+ low-level ACL connection must be created.
+
+ This function will block and the calling application
+ should take care of setting are higher timeout. This
+ might be needed in case of a page timeout from the
+ low-level HCI commands.
+
+ In case of success it will send a BondingCreated
+ signal.

+ org.bluez.Error.Failed
+ org.bluez.Error.InvalidArguments
+ org.bluez.Error.NotInProgress
+ org.bluez.Error.NotAuthorized
+
+ void RemoveBonding(string address)
+
+ This method removes the bonding with a remote device.
+
+ For security reasons this includes removing the actual
+ link key and also disconnecting any open connections
+ for the remote device.
+
+ If the link key was stored on the Bluetooth chip, it
+ must be removed from there, too.
+
+ After deleting the link key this method will send a
+ BondingRemoved signal.
+
+ Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.NotReady

+
+ void DiscoverDevices()
+
+ This method starts the device discovery procedure. This
+ includes an inquiry procedure and remote device name
+ resolving.
+
+ On start up this process will generate a DiscoveryStarted
+ signal and then return RemoteDeviceFound and also
+ RemoteNameUpdated signals. If the procedure has been
+ finished an DiscoveryCompleted signal will be sent.

+ GetRemoteName and in the case a name doesn't exist it
+ will be queued for later resolving and GetRemoteName
+ will return an error.
+
+ While this procedure is running every found device
+ will be returned with RemoteDeviceFound. While
+ DiscoverDevices() automatically resolves unknown
+ devices names and sends RemoteNameUpdated in this
+ case it will only happen if GetRemoteName has been

+
+ This registers the default passkey agent. It can
+ register a passkey for all adapters or for a
+ specific device depending on with object path has
+ been used.
+
+ The path parameter defines the object path of the
+ passkey agent that will be called when a passkey

+
+ void RegisterPasskeyAgent(string path, string address)
+
+ This registers the application passkey agent that
+ will be used for any application specific passkey
+ tasks.
+
+ The path parameter defines the object path of the
+ passkey agent that will be called when a passkey
+ needs to be entered. The address defines the remote
+ device that it will answer passkey requests for.
+
+ If an application disconnects from the bus all
+ registered passkey agent will be removed. It will

+======================
+
+Service unique name
+Interface org.bluez.PasskeyAgent
+Object path freely definable
+
+Methods string Request(string path, string address)
+
+ This method gets called when the service daemon
+ needs to get the passkey for an authentication. The
+ return value is actual passkey. It is a 1 to 16
+ byte PIN code in UTF-8 format.
+
+ The first argument contains the path of the local
+ adapter and the second one the remote address.
+
+ Possible errors: org.bluez.Error.Rejected
+ org.bluez.Error.Canceled
+
+ void Cancel(string path, string address)
+
+ This method gets called to indicate that the
+ authentication request failed before a reply was
+ returned by the Request method.
+
+ void Release()
+
+ This method gets called when the service daemon
+ unregisters a passkey agent. An agent can use
+ it to do cleanup tasks. There is no need to
+ unregister the agent, because when this method
+ gets called it has already been unregistered.

+
+Service unique name
+Interface org.bluez.AuthorizationAgent
+Object path freely definable
+
+Methods void Authorize(string adapter_path, string address,
+ string service_path, string uuid)
+
+ This method gets called when the service daemon wants
+ to get an authorization for accessing a service. This
+ method should return if the remote user is granted
+ access or an error otherwise.
+
+ The adapter_path parameter is the object path of the
+ local adapter. The address, service_path and action

+
+ void Cancel(string adapter_path, string address,
+ string service_path, string uuid)
+
+ This method cancels a previous authorization request.
+ The adapter_path, address, service_path and uuid
+ parameters must match the same values that have been
+ used when the Authorize() method was called.
+
+ void Release()
+
+ This method gets called when the service daemon
+ unregisters an authorization agent. An agent can
+ use it to do cleanup tasks. There is no need to
+ unregister the agent, because when this method
+ gets called it has already been unregistered.
