Definatly we are appreciating what you are doing. Thanks Luke. I ll try to test this on my desktop, which does not have blutooth, to see how it will behave.

Amazing video, Luke! Sincerely look forward to seeing this series through to the end!

excellent thanks, name change also worked and was needed for me. Appreciated the tips on technique and best practices i learnt heaps.

best explanaiton Ive seen so far on how to do BLE on windows.

Thanks for the video - old school coder learnt some new techiques ;) I look forward to running through the dev cycle to see your approach.

Cooooool job man!!! I really like your approach. Keep on doing this... Cheers man!

A nice shortcut when creating a constructor for a class with read-only properties is to do CTRL+. on the class name and chose to create a constructor. You can then select which properties to include in the constructor as parameters :)

this is great - very informative indeed. thank you so much!

Amazing video on real world programming!!! there is nothing else that explains and shows such detail regarding bluetooth connections and interaction!! Thank you for all the hard work Luke. Haters and ungrateful people will always be there, the better you become the more they are! Just ignore them, these are people commenting out of desperation. Thank you again for the brilliant series keep them coming.

As an experienced BTLE developer I found this coding session very informative, thank you.

Thanks man for the information; it was quite useful. I come from a physics background so I really appreciate the full breakdown.

This is amazing. I watched the whole thing. Liked and shared on my socials. 10/10.

Thanks Luke, been catching up on lots of your videos in the last month (discovered you from some of your WPF MVVM videos) and in response to your comments on the end of this video just wanted to say: - I really love and appreciate your way of explaining everything holistically and not just doing the code, code can be hard sometimes but I agree the important thing is to come at it knowing what you want to achieve and how you are going to do it, you help people understand that and follow your very sensible way of doing things. - Also comments: you could not be more right, going back over code I wrote 6 months ago when I started getting back into development I wish I'd realised it then, so much slower without the comments! Understanding the code of others on Github comments make or break it for me as well, with comments you can jump in and dont need to know their class names (which are often quite obtuse) or what they do to understand the specific piece of code causing you issues. TLDR; thanks, keep up the good work!

Amazing Video Man

Thank you so much Luke ❤️ These videos are gold 😍

Very nicely explained, thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot for the bluetooth videos. Very helpful to understand how it works and I really like your coding style! Learning a lot :)

Thanks Luke.., I really enjoyed this video.

This is fantastic, I started at the university to get this kind of knowledge. Please keep up the good work. Apart from all the obvious stuff about BLE, I learned about #region, How to look at Microsoft documentation to see what goes as attributes in a function, How ToString() actually works in a $"{blabla}" . Further more just watching you troubleshoot, going through your code is a joy. How do you plan a video like this?, do you make state charts ,ClassDiagrams or do you just jam away sensing what might come next?

Great sharing! Many thanks!

Damn , lowkey learned a lot from your coding style! please do more

Thank you, this was a really helpful video. Is there any chance you can explain a little more about thread locking?

Cracking 👍🏼

Could you make a updated version of this video!? because I'm finding a lot of changes to the current and told scenario...

Wow, that was an awsome video!!! I like it when you do and explain the things you do before coding. Never took an approach like this. One question though: what does the "Dna" in the bluetooth class name stand for? I have those issues with the auto completion as well - would be great if you could do a video when you know how to fix it. I think it wa caused by the last VS update since it happend in VS2017 as well.

Hi man, thank you very much for your work, it's great. Does this code work with winform applications? Thank you very much :)

Another fantastic video, Luke. It's enlightening to follow your patterns of thought mapping this application component out. One question though: It is often considered bad practice to use one-line if-statemetns without braces because it can lead to errors when forgetting to insert braces for a possible future second statement below the if. What is your take on this?

Don't worry what others say. If you like the end product of your video, then leave it at that. Comments about how to make a better video or better ways to tell your knowledge, keep them in mind and disregard others. You are doing good. Keep it coming...

This series is lit

Great video

Thank you for sharing. What is the purpose of creating empty getters/setters instead of object/variable or read-only object/variable? At 28:20 & 56:20 are some examples.

At the beginning I was like why are bluetooth devices sending advertisements all the time, I knew only one meaning of that word - it's the actual Ads or commercials xD

Have you found how to toggle the standard completion mode? It's Ctrl + Alt + Space... And your Tab will select the suggested property

I would like to it with BLAZOR. But haven't yet found a way to do so.

Alright this didn't work for me (NetCLR Error on Console; WinForms ther is no Way). But I Loved the few Things I could Learn. I do have a question though: The way you organize the code... Is this a professional way / best practice? I'm sure there is a reason to organize it like that... It just doesn't make sense to me... Couldn't do it but sill thankful.

Can you make an updated tutorial on how to do this in .NET MAUI?

I'm planning on using the knowledge you impart to develop a similar app but for BT weigh scales, blood pressure monitor and heart rate monitor. Interesting that GettServiceUUids supports the BPM and HRM but not the scales. Presumably as BT scales are a recent introduction on the market. I'm assuming that any device supported by Microsofts namespace will have a common interface making development fairly straight forward but for the scales which are not covered by the namespace, knowing the method call's to get the data out of the device might not be so straight forward? Finding scales with an API that's developer friendly could be an issue? Cheers, great tutorial and great minutiae :=) PS: Does the UWP API work with USB BT dongles or does the BT device have to be integrated into the motherboard? Cheers? I'm asking as some dongles appear as serial ports. (Proof will be in the pudding i guess :)

Found a possible issue with CleanupTimeouts(). If there are no more devices that advertise then the CleanupTimeouts() will not be called anymore.

Is the window version supposed to do anything? The console works well.

i can't add interops to project can any on help

Hi. we are trying to build a android app with xamarin to connect to a arduino with hm-10 bluetooth module, to send and receive some simple data, do you have any tips, could you point me in the direction of what I need, because I love this series and you explain it very clearly but at the moment it's only windows app you build and explain, and I need to do it with Android, hope to hear from you.

for the IntelliSense problem occurs with me sometimes even in older version of visual studio so its not new and it just gets fixed by itself i guess by restarting vs

The devices found are they mobile devices? Because BLE library only works on Speakers and Headphones I thought?

how did you make mdn black themed?also the amount of comments makes me happy even if people don't like comments for obvious things its better to have them and ignore them than to not have them and not knowing what to do :)

Tried the same for WinForms app. Got "Error CS0731 The type forwarder for type 'Windows.Devices.Bluetooth.Advertisement.BluetoothLEAdvertisementWatcher' in assembly 'Windows' causes a cycle" after adding that winmd reference. That's so frustrating. How to create a winforms app with BLE?

The MSDN article is not in the description.

Where is the video for connecting to Blood glucose measuring device and reading the data. Would be of great help. Pls send me

mscorlib.dll could not be loaded

Hi, I am using Visual Studio 2019, when I am adding the ref to windows IneropServices for .Net Core class library I am getting error message "the reference is invalid or unsupported". Does anybody know what maybe the reason?

Hi , I have implemented the same application but start listening is not working how can i get resolve it. Could you please help me ? Thanks in advance.

Sweet tutorial, thanks. But man, commenting every single line of code ?

Using the same code.. The program can not able to find near by device.. Plz help..

I tried running solution in Windows 7. Does BluetoothLEAdvertisementWatcher not support Windows 7?

How did your PC connect to Bluetooth?

Holy butt cheeks this is incredible! Awesome work!

Are the book reviews done?

Not able to find Bluetooth "ON" devices using your source code, please help me.

To make intellisense highlight to default action type Ctrl+Alt+Space on video (ukposts.info/have/v-deo/ioaSp5p7q519rI0.html)

You're accessing the dictionary outside the thread lock. Isn't that a no-no even if you're just reading it?

Yeah. VS intellisence is frustrating.

This method no longer seems to work in .net core 3+

You can connect multiple HC-05s ukposts.info/have/v-deo/oX12oWmIqYZkmIU.html

I know this is totally out of context but u look like ed sheeran lol

Can you explain why you are commenting everything? Most of these are practically useless, as they add nothing of value to the code and they only repeat what the code already says.

System.NotImplementedException: „The member DeviceWatcher DeviceInformation.CreateWatcher(string aqsFilter, IEnumerable additionalProperties, DeviceInformationKind kind) is not implemented in Uno. What i doiing wrong?
