- Bluetooth SCO connection requires developing kernel driver?
- Posted by Joe Lukacovic on April 10th, 2008
I currently need functionality to make a Vista machine utilize the Bluetooth
HFP in order to control a Cell Phone. Right now I'm at a point where I need
to establish the SCO audio link between the two. I've done google research,
and read on the MSDN article that "The Windows Vista Bluetooth driver stack
has been enhanced to provide SCO kernel-mode DDIs." Does this mean that the
only way to Create/Read/Write an SCO link is by creating a kernel mode driver?
If so, is the WDK sample "BthEcho" a good example to follow?
Thanks

yes, SCO is user mode only. i guess bthecho is a good place to start, any
l2cap usage will probably be ripped out in place of SCO BRBs

Ok, I was afraid of that.
Thanks for your reply!

Joe,
Did you get any sort of relay driver going? If so, can you give me an
example?
I had switched to the Widcomm BT Stack since they were smart enough to
support SCO directly, but it turns out that Broadcom abandoned Widcomm in
Vista.
Thanks!
