WIndows PocketPC Bluetooth registerdevice com port question

Asked by ronlep in Bluetooth, Windows ATL / WTL / COM Programming, C++ Programming Language

Tags: bluetooth registerdevice pin com port

I have a bluetooth device which came with a dll. The dll requires a com port (0-9) to initate a connection. It aslo requires a pin. I'm trying to create a port which I can use to connect to device. I can lookup and discover the device no problem (using WSALookupServiceBegin...).  I'm setting the channel of my PORTEMUPPortParams to
      pp.channel = RFCOMM_CHANNEL_MULTIPLE & 0xff;
My call to RegisterDevice does return a port but my call to CreateFile fails.
My question is what is the best way to create the port for my device and what (or how) do I deal with the pin. I'm new to bluetooth and can't seem to find complete examples as to what to do.

Thanks in advance,

Ron
