- BLEClient::discoverServices
Description
Start the service discovery process for the connected remote device.
Syntax
void discoverServices();
Parameters
The function requires no input parameter.
Returns
The function returns nothing.
Example Code
Example: BLEUartClient
Notes and Warnings
NA
- BLEClient::discoveryDone
Description
Check if the service discovery process has been completed.
Syntax
bool discoveryDone();
Parameters
The function requires no input parameter.
Returns
TThe function returns TRUE if the service discovery process has been completed successfully, FALSE if the service discovery process failed, is still in progress, or has yet to start.
Example Code
Example: BLEUartClient
Notes and Warnings
NA
- BLEClient::printServices
Description
Print out a formatted list of discovered services to the serial port.
Syntax
void printServices();
Parameters
The function requires no input parameter.
Returns
The function returns nothing.
Example Code
NA
Notes and Warnings
NA
- BLEClient::getService
Description
Get a service with the specified UUID on the remote device.
Syntax
BLERemoteService * getService(const char * uuid);
BLERemoteService * getService(BLEUUID uuid);
Parameters
uuid
: the desired service UUID, expressed as a character array or a BLEUUID object.
Returns
The function returns the found service as a BLERemoteService object pointer, otherwise nullptr is returned if a service with the UUID is not found.
Example Code
Example: BLEUartClient
Notes and Warnings
NA
- BLEClient::getConnId
Description
Get the connection ID associated with the remote device.
Syntax
uint8_t getConnId;
Parameters
The function requires no input parameter.
Returns
The function returns the connection ID for the connected remote device.
Example Code
NA
Notes and Warnings
NA
- BLEClient::getClientId
Description
Get the client ID for the BLEClient object.
Syntax
T_CLIENT_ID getClientId();;
Parameters
The function requires no input parameter.
Returns
The function returns the BLEClient object’s client ID.
Example Code
NA
Notes and Warnings
The client ID is used when calling internal GATT client API.
- BLEClient::setDisconnectCallback
Description
Set a user function as a callback function when the remote device is disconnected.
Syntax
void setDisconnectCallback(void (*fCallback) (BLEClient * client));
Parameters
fCallback
: A user callback function that returns void and takes one argument.
client
: A pointer to the BLEClient object corresponding to the disconnected remote device
Returns
The function returns nothing.
Example Code
NA
Notes and Warnings
The user callback function will be called after the remote device has disconnected, before the characteristics, services and client associated with the remote device are deleted.
