Hey Everyone :slightly_smiling_face: We found your library kable on Github, is there a plan to support Java as well or is it for now iOS, macOS and Android only?
So Java for Windows and Linux

By Java, I assume you mean JVM platforms? As opposed to being able to consume Kable from a Java codebase?

As for supporting JVM target on Windows and/or Linux. There are no short-term plans. This is mostly because the JVM doesn’t provide any BLE APIs (that I’m aware of).

If you happen to know of, or find, a Java library that provides access to BLE then we could definitely have Kable wrap it to provide that support.

<https://github.com/Reedyuk/blue-falcon|Blue Falcon> is wrapping <https://github.com/weliem/blessed-bluez|BLESSED library> to bring support to JVM targets (specifically Raspberry Pi). Probably worth investigating how well that would work to have Kable do similar.

If you <https://github.com/JuulLabs/kable/issues/new|open up an Issue on Kable> repo, I’ll try to find some time to investigate further.

<#CCSFQJD7V|> Hello <@U751GPTU7>, Is a pleasure greet you. I am going to start an Application that Write/Read data for both Android & iOS, I have investigated a lot of you lib and seems nice and great library, but I have (2) situations that I'll like that you help me to clear: *(1) situation:* The Applications will be oriented to iOS & Android; this App will hold connection via BLE, this will maintain this connection with the user due to this App is for realize rehabilitation excersises througth a BLE device but what happen if the user close the app for to see other app, or a call is coming, etc, etc. this connection will be closed? what strategy can you recommend me for face this situation? *(2) situation:* The App will need to send updates to firmware via OTA, I know that Nordic Library offer samples for handle that, but they do not offer KMP solutions and really I will like to use Kable, maybe Kable offer any mechanism for handle that? or how you have handled o will handle this situation? Thanks for you support and I expect that you can clear up these doubts :+1::rocket:
