I was hoping I could use the QBluetoothSocket connection. However it sounds like a background service that does the Bluetooth communications must be pure java? No Qt, no C++.

How can I maintain this connection streaming GPS data when app is not in foreground or device is in sleep? Is it even possible to run Qt C++ code on Android in the background? Does Qt have any example for this? Is a Background Service what I need? Creating a Background Service https://developer.android.com/training/run-background-service/create-service.html Thanks in advance for any tips or direction, Yes, Qt application for android is a normal android application, so you really need service. I was trying to do something like that last year, the most convenient way I've found was to open the builded project in Android Studio, fix the gradle errors, then change all you need to make it a service. But by that time you need your Qt part already working. I was stuck on the front-end side though, so dropped the idea to use Qt for normal applications. _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org<mailto:Interest@qt-project.org> http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest This email and any files transmitted with it from The Charles Machine Works, Inc. are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to which they are addressed.
