Is there such a thing as a MS XP BlueTooth DDK?

We have 2.4 Ghz hardware and we are trying to expand it to Bluetooth. I saw a nice PowerPoint
presentation
about BT and Longhorn and there are SDK examples of how to write BT apps. Is there any DDK to show
how to
hook to or write my own HCI ? I'm looking for driver info.
Thanks

the bth miniport spec is not public. what type of device are you trying to
write a bth driver for? usb? pci?

We have a PCI / Card Bus / mini PCI device that does 802.11 connectivity.
We want to expand our device capability.
Thanks

you should do it in a spec compliant manner (whichever appendix H (i think
that is it) transport applies, probably serial or the newer H.5)

Appendix H of what? I am not familiar. Does this mean with no public miniport
spec that we have to write or buy an HCI? Does MS really want people to
do this? Or does MS only want to support a few chosen hardware vendors?
We probably won't resolve anything here. The suits from our customers
probably need to talk to your suits.

appendix H of the bluetooth specification. MS wants people to conform to
the published and standardized HCIs that the BTH SIG has published.

OK, thanks for the reply and info. I guess we are going shopping for an HCI
to connect to our radio.
Thanks
