Bluetooth Function Plugin

Closed this issue · 6 comments

How to use the plugin?
1. Click on View Finds
2. Click menu then Bluetooth Sync
3. Click menu to either make device discoverable or to connect to a device
4. Select the Finds to send.
5. Click the Send Selected button

What is the expected output?
Finds should be transmitted across devices.

Additional Information.

Transmitting pictures caused too many issues so I disabled it. The code is 
still there for future reference in case someone wants to take a look at it. 
The main problem was that the base64 string encoding of the image got corrupted 
on the transmission and it crashed posit when the other device received it.

I installed the patch on a local clone.  The patch reported an error on the 
raw/plugins_preferences.xml file, which doesn't include an entry for the 
bluetooth plugin.  When I run the app I don't see the plugin installed in the 
ViewFinds menu?? 

Is there something missing the plugins_preferences.xml??

The patch I submitted contains a block for the plugin_preferences.xml. Not sure 
why applying the patch doesn't include this block.
I exported a patch that only adds the entry for the plugin in the 
plugin_preferences.xml file.
Hope this helps
