The socket function creates a socket for incoming or outgoing connections.:

To create a socket using Bluetooth, use the following settings:

• The af parameter of the socket function is always set to AF_BTH for Bluetooth sockets.
• The type parameter of the socket function is always SOCK_STREAM; SOCK_DGRAM sockets are not supported by Bluetooth.
• For the protocol parameter, BTHPROTO_RFCOMM is the supported protocol.
