Hi everybody,
I have an iMac with OS X Lion 10.7.5 installed and Xcode 4.5.2 running. I want to use my CC2540 based USB dongle with the iOS
simulator in order to test my CoreBluetooth based application. I have followed the statements suggested by Apple here (http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#technotes/tn2295/_index.html) without success.
Once inserted into the USB socket, my Dongle is recognized by the OS (I checked it with dmesg) and the OS X Bluetooth driver
still remains attached at the built-in 2.1+DRE Bluetooth adapter since I set the "bluetoothHostControllerSwitchBehavior" to "never".
The trouble is that the iPhone iOS 6.0 simulator, once launched, is not able to communicate with the external USB dongle because
when I switch on the Bluetooth in the "settings" panel it always shows a rotating circle which never switches to "ON".
I suspect I have to change the USB dongle or install onto it another firmware (I installed the HostTestRelease firmware which works
with BTool in Windows).
Any idea/suggestions will be really appreciated
Best Regards
/Alessandro
