bluetooth-sendto dbus-timeout

bluetooth-sendto dbus-timeout

[Ed Tsang]

Hi, 
Hope one of you expert could help me on this.
I am trying to use bluetooth-sendto (bluz-gnome) to push files to remote and record detail of the result (e.g. cannot connect to SDP, cannot locate the opp .....). I was able to go into the obex-client to get more detail when the transfer fail.  But when the remote (user) do not response to the connection request, I got a DBUS_GERROR_REMOTE_EXCEPTION (Did not receive a reply...). 
   I am guessing the method timeout, but it was too fast (prefer to give the remote device user more time). 
  Is there a way to increase the timeout value to a much much larger number?
  Is there a time out on the obexd side on the SDP connect and rfcomm connect in case the user do not response to the connection request. 

Ed

bluez-gnome is old, and its bluetooth-sendto has a number of known bugs.
Try with the latest version of gnome-bluetooth instead.

Hi Bastien,
   I tried gnome-bluetooth 2.28.1, similar situation, when remote Nokia phone user don't response, got "Did not receive ..."

Don't top-post, and try gnome-bluetooth 2.28.6 (the latest stable
release, which contains bluetooth-sendto bug fixes).

Cheers

Tired gnome-blueooth 2.28.6 - similar result "Did not receive a reply..."

So I will guess there is another timeout trigger the DISC sending out.
  Is there a way to make the d-bus method time out much longer. I tried to search the dbus tutorial and only find out that we need to handle the "DBUS_GERROR_REMOTE_EXCEPTION".

Ed
