SYMPTOMS

CAUSE

In the OBEX IR transport layer, the service name identification string was not copied correctly to the irdaServiceName member of the SOCKADDR_IRDA structure . This behavior may cause connection failures when you try to beam data by using OBEX by means of Infrared Data Association (IrDA).
