Abstract

A method of transmitting a capture image for an information processing apparatus comprising a communication module configured to execute close proximity wireless transfer. The method may include establishing connection between the communication module and an external device. The method may also include generating image data for a screen displayed on a display device and transmitting the generated image data to the external device when a “Get default object” command defined in a push protocol class of an object exchange (OBEX) protocol for requesting acquisition of a default object is received from the external device in a state where connection between the communication module and the external device is established, the “Get default object” command comprising a parameter for indicating an attribute of requested data as images.

Claims

1. A method of transmitting a capture image for an information processing apparatus comprising a communication module configured to execute close proximity wireless transfer, the method comprising:

establishing connection between the communication module and an external device; and

generating image data for a screen displayed on a display device and transmitting the generated image data to the external device when a “

Get default object”

command to which a parameter is added is received from the external device in a state where connection between the communication module and the external device is established, the “

Get default object”

command being defined in a push protocol class of an object exchange (OBEX) protocol, the added parameter indicating an attribute of requested data as images.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the transmitting the generated image data comprises generating image data for an entire display screen.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the transmitting the generated image data comprises generating image data for an active window area on the display screen.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising setting either the entire display screen or an active window area on the display screen as a range for which image data is to be generated.
