My friend and I are going to discuss the codevelopment of a Windows JSR082 this Thursday, after he's had some time to do research, etc. If we do decide to do it, we'll create a SourceForge project (just for that, i.e. separate from the PIE project ). Regarding, WiiRemoteJ v1.0... I did want to wait till I had finished my other library, but with the emergence of the PIE project, I'll push things up and release them separately. Therefore, you might see WiiRemoteJ v1.0 sometime in the next few days.

hi again!
i need more information on request/response sequence:
if u start ur wiimoteJ, u make a discover to wiiremotes nearby.
you get the adresses back and then?

how does the communication goes on?
do u only send leds on and remote turns his leds on or is there some kind of a request like:
pc request: i will send u something
pc send: ....
remote: got it
remote: turn on leds
remote send: have done it
pc listen: remote did it
pc ready for another command
....
i cant get it... mean the process or sequence how communication works.

part2:
is there any possibility to listen only without any pairing etc?
for example only receiving the actual status from wiiremote
with a simple read command on the mac?
maybe u could gelp me out

thx gangist2002

Hello cha0s.

did you already release WiiRemoteJ in version 1.0 ? I would like to use wiimotes to make interactions in a 3D environment.

Thanks.

gangist2002:
Part 1: After getting the address, you open your Connections (I open the control/output Connection first, but I don't think it matters). Then you can just send a message. It will not be acknowledged in most cases (though there are exceptions, such as with a write-operation). There is nothing fancy involved. The sequence is like this:
-PC and remote connected.
-PC sends command: turn on LEDs
-Remote turns on LEDs

Part2: No, you have to pair to talk to the remote. It communicates through its own profile (the details of which are available via the wiki). You can't get any info without pairing. Note that opening a Connection to the remote will automatically pair it and the device initiating the connection request. You do not have to go through device discovery if you already know the remote's BT address.


ezaekiel: I haven't released it yet, but it's coming. I'm kind of busy now, but hopefully it'll be done by the end of the week. Hopefully. Meanwhile, feel free to work with the beta version. There should be a download around this thread somewhere... I'll put a link on the front page when I release 1.0.

Hi

I found the above behavior by inserting println() into buttonInputReceived() of WiiRemoteAdapter.

Is this my missunderstanding?

I'm working on some implimentation of WiiRemoteAdapter, using WiiRemoteJ beta 0.9.

If continuous input is on (if you enable the IR sensor, this happens by default), then yes, that will be fired without any input. It will also be fired when a button was pressed, but was just released (so there could be no buttons pressed then), regardless of whether continuous input is on.
So in the summary: yes, it can fire without any buttons being pressed.
