Slideshow Presentations over BlueMesh

Our new test app works with BlueMesh now!  There are two new apps (that work together) developed for BlueMesh that are now in the repository in the WebView branch in the directory "WebViewTest" (the audience app) and "WebViewHost" (the presenter app).

WebViewHost:
The presenter app is fairly simple.  It simply takes strings consisting of html pages and sends them over BlueMesh when the "send" button is pushed.

WebViewTest:
The client app is slightly more complicated than the presenter app because the view needs to be updated during run-time as new slides come in.  This means that BlueMesh needs to be run in it's own thread and pass messages to a handler in the UI thread.  It is important to note that a looper must be prepared if BlueMesh is run in a separate thread than the UI thread.



Stay tuned for a more in depth blog post about how this app works and how to use BlueMesh.
