A C++ framework you say?

A project log for 0x05ECure - Cryptography over BLE

A bluetooth le security dongle or SPI component. Holds the private keys away from the computer and does the hard parts of PKI for you.

Just a quickie today: while building a C++ framework for BLE I discovered there's one already :) So god bless mbed and their bluetooth team (http://mbed.org/teams/Bluetooth-Low-Energy/).

Mbed itself is weird until you get the idea then it's awesome. It has one of those (dreaded) online IDE things and theirs is really quite crap. It does, however, set up projects their dependencies etc. and can export to all the major embedded development environments. So that's what I've been doing ... and developing in Keil which despite how ancient it looks and behaves does at least have the advantage of working properly.

Oh, and the online build is excellent. Very very impressed by that. I wonder if it's possible to wrap a real IDE (and debugger) around their setup and compile infrastructure. Hmmmmm.
