* INFO:

i've made a test build of Subsurface for Windows that has experimental
BLE support from using a custom Qt.

please download this ZIP and follow the instructions bellow if you
want to help us
get BLE support in Subsurface on Windows.

* INSTRUCTIONS:

NOTE: to somehow prove that the download is legit, here is the list of
my contributions to Subsurface:
https://github.com/Subsurface-divelog/subsurface/commits?author=neolit123

NOTE: you need Windows 8.1 as a minimum for BLE to work.

- go to here and click DOWNLOAD (top right):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/zslq3ughx9ciehj/_deploy_win32_ble.zip?dl=0
- extract the ZIP in a folder somewhere
- navigate to the folder with Explorer and start _run.cmd
- a console window should open and next to it the Subsurface window
- start your BLE dive-computer and make it ready for downloading of dives
- in Subsurface goto Import -> Download from divecomputer
- select the following options (and pick paths):
     [x] Save libdivecomputer dumpfile
     [x] Save libdivecomputer logfile
- select the following option:
     [x] Choose bluetooth download mode
- a dialog should open. select "Force LE" for mode, and click "Scan".
- your device should appear in the list. select it and click "Save"
- the "Device or mount point" field should now show your DC.
- click "Download".

REQUIRED:
- describe what happens after "Download" with steps 1), 2), 3)
- share your libdivecomputer dumpfile and logfile on errors
- copy the console output as text and share it (or make a screenshot)

your can archive the above assets in a ZIP and use cloud services like
dropbox.com to create a shareable link.

i will cross reference this post from the forum too.
