Detailed Description

The QLowEnergyAdvertisingData class represents the data to be broadcast during Bluetooth Low Energy advertising. \inmodule QtBluetooth.

Since
5.7

This data can include the device name, GATT services offered by the device, and so on. The data set via this class will be used when advertising is started by calling \l QLowEnergyController::startAdvertising(). Objects of this class can represent an Advertising Data packet or a Scan Response packet.

Note
The actual data packets sent over the advertising channel cannot contain more than 31 bytes. If the variable-length data set via this class exceeds that limit, it will be left out of the packet or truncated, depending on the type. On Android, advertising will fail if advertising data is larger than 31 bytes. On Bluez DBus backend the advertising length limit and the behavior when it is exceeded is up to BlueZ; it may for example support extended advertising. For the most predictable behavior keep the advertising data short.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ Discoverability

The discoverability of the advertising device as defined by the Generic Access Profile.

\value DiscoverabilityNone The advertising device does not wish to be discoverable by scanning devices. \value DiscoverabilityLimited The advertising device wishes to be discoverable with a high priority. Note that this mode is not compatible with using a white list. The value of \l QLowEnergyAdvertisingParameters::filterPolicy() is always assumed to be \l QLowEnergyAdvertisingParameters::IgnoreWhiteList when limited discoverability is used. \value DiscoverabilityGeneral The advertising device wishes to be discoverable by scanning devices.

Member Function Documentation

◆ discoverability()

QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::Discoverability QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::discoverability ( ) const

Returns the discoverability mode of the advertising device.

The default is \l DiscoverabilityNone.

Definition at line 184 of file qlowenergyadvertisingdata.cpp.

References QLowEnergyAdvertisingDataPrivate::discoverability.

◆ includePowerLevel()

bool QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::includePowerLevel ( ) const

Returns whether to include the device's transmit power level in the advertising data.

The default is false.

◆ invalidManufacturerId()

static quint16 QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::invalidManufacturerId ( )
inlinestatic

Returns an invalid manufacturer id.

If this value is set as the manufacturer id (which it is by default), no manufacturer data will be present in the advertising data.

◆ localName()

QString QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::localName ( ) const

Returns the name of the local device that is to be advertised.

quint16 QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::manufacturerId ( ) const

Returns the manufacturer id.

The default is \l QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::invalidManufacturerId(), which means the data will not be advertised.

◆ setDiscoverability()

void QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::setDiscoverability ( QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::Discoverability mode)

Sets the discoverability type of the advertising device to mode.

Note
Discoverability information can only appear in an actual advertising data packet. If this object acts as scan response data, a call to this function will have no effect on the scan response sent.

Definition at line 175 of file qlowenergyadvertisingdata.cpp.

References QLowEnergyAdvertisingDataPrivate::discoverability.

◆ setIncludePowerLevel()

void QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::setIncludePowerLevel ( bool doInclude)

Specifies whether to include the device's transmit power level in the advertising data.

If doInclude is true, the data will be included, otherwise it will not.

+ Here is the caller graph for this function:

◆ setLocalName()

void QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::setLocalName ( const QString & name)

Specifies that name should be broadcast as the name of the device.

If the full name does not fit into the advertising data packet, an abbreviated name is sent, as described by the Bluetooth Low Energy specification.

On Android, the local name cannot be changed. Android always uses the device name. If this local name is not empty, the Android implementation includes the device name in the advertisement packet; otherwise the device name is omitted from the advertisement packet.

◆ setManufacturerData()

void QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::setManufacturerData ( quint16 id,

Sets the manufacturer id and data.

The id parameter is a company identifier as assigned by the Bluetooth SIG. The data parameter is an arbitrary value.

◆ setRawData()

void QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::setRawData ( const QByteArray & data)

Sets the data to be advertised to data.

If the value is not an empty byte array, it will be sent as-is as the advertising data and all other data in this object will be ignored. This can be used to send non-standard data.

Note
If data is longer than 31 bytes, it will be truncated. It is the caller's responsibility to ensure that data is well-formed.

Providing the raw advertising data is not supported on BlueZ DBus backend as BlueZ does not support it. This may change in a future release.

References QLowEnergyAdvertisingDataPrivate::rawData.

◆ setServices()

void QLowEnergyAdvertisingData::setServices ( const QList< QBluetoothUuid > & services)

Specifies that the service UUIDs in services should be advertised.

If the entire list does not fit into the packet, an incomplete list is sent as specified by the Bluetooth Low Energy specification.
