1Introduction
2============
3
4ObexFTP implements the Object Exchange (OBEX) protocols file transfer feature.
5
6The standard is defined in more detail in section K12.5 (Profiles: OBEX FTP)
7in Bluetooth V1.1 Profile Specifications.
8
9ObexFTP works out-of-the-box with all protocols supported by OpenOBEX.
10Currently IrDA and the there is an upcoming BlueTooth support.
11ObexFTP comes with ready to use custom support for some mobile phones serial
12cables.
13
14It's well tested with Siemens (S/ME45 and SL45) as well as
15Ericsson (T68i) mobile phones.
16
17This ObexFTP distribution contains libraries as well as some applications.
18
19Applications to access e.g. Flex. Memory and Multimedia Card memory on Siemens
20mobile equipment, i.e. S45, ME45 and SL42/SL45/SL45i (IrDA only, for now):
21
22 - obexls - list the mobiles contents
23 - obexcp - copy to/from mobile
24 - obexmd - create a directory on the mobile
25 - obexrd - remove an empty directory on the mobile
26 - obexrm - remove files on the mobile
27 - flexmem - all in one application (heavy on options)
28
29Applications to hack Siemens mobile equipment using datalink cable
30
31 - bfb_keysim - simulate key presses on the mobile
32 - bfb_eeprom - list and examine the user eeprom on the mobile
33
34Library parts to be used in other applications
35
36 - obexftp - high level abstraction of OBEX FTP protocol
37 - cobex_pe - cable OBEX for Ericsson phones (i.e. T68i)
38 - cobex_bfb -  cable OBEX for Siemens phones (i.e. x45, x35, x25)
39 - bfb - Siemens mobile datalink cable protocol layer

42Short Installation Instructions
43===============================
44
45To compile and install:
46# ./configure
47# make
48# make install (as superuser)
49
50Consider using pedantic error checking:
51 CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -Werror" ./configure
52
53
54Further Development
55===================
56
57If you find this tool useful or actually like it let me know.
58Development will focus on your needs. Currently I know of 20 people
59using this tool (including me). So that proposal is not too
60unfair, see?
61
62This package lacks a full featured GUI. There is some proof of concept
63code for GTK and GNOME-VFS. Somebody needs to work on that or perhaps a
64KDE tool though.
65
66If you are a developer and want to use obexftp library or even
67cobex/bfb library do so. But please keep me informed - I'll send
68you pre-releases. That way your application is able to exploit the
69newest library features.

71
72Debugging
73=========
74
75remove all ObexFTP installations from your system. Build using
76 CFLAGS="-DOBEXFTP_DEBUG=5" ./configure
