[Android.Runtime.Register("createInsecureRfcommSocketToServiceRecord", "(Ljava/util/UUID;)Landroid/bluetooth/BluetoothSocket;", "")]
[Android.Runtime.RequiresPermission("android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT")]
public Android.Bluetooth.BluetoothSocket? CreateInsecureRfcommSocketToServiceRecord (Java.Util.UUID? uuid);
[<Android.Runtime.Register("createInsecureRfcommSocketToServiceRecord", "(Ljava/util/UUID;)Landroid/bluetooth/BluetoothSocket;", "")>]
[<Android.Runtime.RequiresPermission("android.permission.BLUETOOTH_CONNECT")>]
member this.CreateInsecureRfcommSocketToServiceRecord : Java.Util.UUID -> Android.Bluetooth.BluetoothSocket
Parameters
- uuid
- UUID
service record uuid to lookup RFCOMM channel
Returns
a RFCOMM BluetoothServerSocket ready for an outgoing connection
- Attributes
Exceptions
on error, for example Bluetooth not available, or insufficient permissions
Remarks
Create an RFCOMM BluetoothSocket
socket ready to start an insecure outgoing connection to this remote device using SDP lookup of uuid.
The communication channel will not have an authenticated link key i.e. it will be subject to person-in-the-middle attacks. For Bluetooth 2.1 devices, the link key will be encrypted, as encryption is mandatory. For legacy devices (pre Bluetooth 2.1 devices) the link key will be not be encrypted. Use #createRfcommSocketToServiceRecord
if an encrypted and authenticated communication channel is desired.
This is designed to be used with BluetoothAdapter#listenUsingInsecureRfcommWithServiceRecord
for peer-peer Bluetooth applications.
Use BluetoothSocket#connect
to initiate the outgoing connection. This will also perform an SDP lookup of the given uuid to determine which channel to connect to.
The remote device will be authenticated and communication on this socket will be encrypted.
Hint: If you are connecting to a Bluetooth serial board then try using the well-known SPP UUID 00001101-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB. However if you are connecting to an Android peer then please generate your own unique UUID.
