regarding transfer of files through bluetooth, WIFI and WIFI direct

[ranjith kumar]

Hi,
I want to transfer image files  through bluetooth between two computers.
Which profile I have to use?

I dont know much about "Basic Imaging Profile".
But the thing is that I cant use Basic image profile.

So what profile I have to use for transfer of files? Can I use OBEX
profile for that?



Also want transfer video files through WIFI and WIFI direct.
will there be any profiles like in bluetooth? Or there any APIs available?
Please send me a link if you have.

Thanks.
