As far as I know, Apple does not allow bluetooth file sharing in iPhone/iPad.
Is there any way to write a code in Objective-C to make an application to share files?

If you only need to communicate between other iOS devices, Apple provides a high-level GameKit framework to make it easier to handle Bluetooth communication, which should allow you to share file data. Here’s a tutorial I found: http://www.devx.com/wireless/Article/43502/0/page/2
I’m not sure, but I think Apple only allow members of the Made for iPod program to access the low-level raw bluetooth APIs, and even then, can only with certified external devices.

If you want a simple way to share files and other data between devices of other platforms, you might want to have a look at the Bump API: http://bu.mp/api
