QLowEnergyController acts as the entry point for Bluetooth Low Energy development.
Bluetooth Low Energy defines two types of devices; the peripheral and the central. Each role performs a different task. The peripheral device provides data which is utilized by central devices. An example might be a humidity sensor which measures the moisture in a winter garden. A device such as a mobile phone might read the sensor's value and display it to the user in the greater context of all sensors in the same environment. In this case the sensor is the peripheral device and the mobile phone acts as the central device.
A controller in the central role is created via the createCentral () factory method. Such an object essentially acts as a placeholder towards a remote Low Energy peripheral device, enabling features such as service discovery and state tracking.
After having created a controller object in the central role, the first step is to establish a connection via connectToDevice (). Once the connection has been established, the controller's state () changes to QLowEnergyController::ConnectedState 和 connected () signal is emitted. It is important to mention that some platforms such as a BlueZ based Linux cannot maintain two connected instances of QLowEnergyController to the same remote device. In such cases the second call to connectToDevice () may fail. This limitation may disappear at some stage in the future. The disconnectFromDevice () function is used to break the existing connection.
The second step after establishing the connection is to discover the services offered by the remote peripheral device. This process is started via discoverServices () and has finished once the discoveryFinished () signal has been emitted. The discovered services can be enumerated via services ().
The last step is to create service objects. The createServiceObject () function acts as factory for each service object and expects the service UUID as parameter. The calling context should take ownership of the returned QLowEnergyService 实例。
任何 QLowEnergyService , QLowEnergyCharacteristic or QLowEnergyDescriptor instance which is later created from this controller's connection becomes invalid as soon as the controller disconnects from the remote Bluetooth Low Energy device.
A controller in the peripheral role is created via the createPeripheral () factory method. Such an object acts as a peripheral device itself, enabling features such as advertising services and allowing clients to get notified about changes to characteristic values.
After having created a controller object in the peripheral role, the first step is to populate the set of GATT services offered to client devices via calls to addService (). Afterwards, one would call startAdvertising () to let the device broadcast some data and, depending on the type of advertising being done, also listen for incoming connections from GATT clients.

[signal]
void
QLowEnergyController::
connected
()
This signal is emitted when the controller successfully connects to the remote Low Energy device (if the controller is in the CentralRole ) or if a remote Low Energy device connected to the controller (if the controller is in the PeripheralRole ). On iOS and OS X this signal is not reliable if the controller is in the PeripheralRole - the controller only guesses that some central connected to our peripheral as soon as this central tries to write/read a characteristic/descriptor.
[signal]
void
QLowEnergyController::
connectionUpdated
(const
QLowEnergyConnectionParameters
&
newParameters
)
This signal is emitted when the connection parameters change. This can happen as a result of calling requestConnectionUpdate () or due to other reasons, for instance because the other side of the connection requested new parameters. The new values can be retrieved from newParameters .
该函数在 Qt 5.7 引入。
另请参阅 requestConnectionUpdate ().
[signal]
void
QLowEnergyController::
disconnected
()
This signal is emitted when the controller disconnects from the remote Low Energy device or vice versa. On iOS and OS X this signal is unreliable if the controller is in the PeripheralRole .
[signal]
void
QLowEnergyController::
discoveryFinished
()
This signal is emitted when the running service discovery finishes. The signal is not emitted if the discovery process finishes with an error.
This signal can only be emitted if the controller is in the CentralRole .
另请参阅 discoverServices () 和 error ().
[signal]
void
QLowEnergyController::
error
(
QLowEnergyController::Error
newError
)
This signal is emitted when an error occurs. The newError parameter describes the error that occurred.
注意： 信号 error 在此类中被重载。通过使用函数指针句法连接到此信号，Qt 提供用于获得如此范例展示的函数指针的方便帮助程序：
connect(lowEnergyController, QOverload<QLowEnergyController::Error>::of(&QLowEnergyController::error), [=](QLowEnergyController::Error newError){ /* ... */ });
另请参阅 error () 和 errorString ().
[signal]
void
QLowEnergyController::
serviceDiscovered
(const
QBluetoothUuid
&
newService
)
This signal is emitted each time a new service is discovered. The newService parameter contains the UUID of the found service.
This signal can only be emitted if the controller is in the
CentralRole
.
另请参阅 discoverServices () 和 discoveryFinished ().
[signal]
void
QLowEnergyController::
stateChanged
(
QLowEnergyController::ControllerState
state

QLowEnergyController::
~QLowEnergyController
()
销毁 QLowEnergyController 实例。
Constructs and returns a QLowEnergyService 对象采用 parent from service . The controller must be in the PeripheralRole and in the UnconnectedState 。 service object must be valid.
注意： Once the peripheral instance is disconnected from the remote central device or if disconnectFromDevice () is manually called, every service definition that was previously added via this function is removed from the peripheral. Therefore this function must be called again before re-advertising this peripheral controller instance. The described behavior is connection specific and therefore not dependent on whether stopAdvertising () 被调用。
该函数在 Qt 5.7 引入。
另请参阅 stopAdvertising (), disconnectFromDevice ()，和 QLowEnergyServiceData::addIncludedService .
Connects to the remote Bluetooth Low Energy device.
This function does nothing if the controller's state () is not equal to UnconnectedState 。 connected () signal is emitted once the connection is successfully established.
On Linux/ BlueZ systems, it is not possible to connect to the same remote device using two instances of this class. The second call to this function may fail with an error. This limitation may be removed in future releases.

createCentral
(const
QBluetoothDeviceInfo
&
remoteDevice
,
QObject
*
parent
= nullptr)
Returns a new object of this class that is in the CentralRole and has the parent object parent 。 remoteDevice refers to the device that a connection will be established to later.
The controller uses the local default Bluetooth adapter for the connection management.

localDevice
,
QObject
*
parent
= nullptr)
Returns a new instance of this class with parent .
The remoteDevice must contain the address of the remote Bluetooth Low Energy device to which this object should attempt to connect later on.
The connection is established via localDevice 。若 localDevice is invalid, the local default device is automatically selected. If localDevice specifies a local device that is not a local Bluetooth adapter, error () 被设为 InvalidBluetoothAdapterError once connectToDevice () 被调用。
Note that specifying the local device to be used for the connection is only possible when using BlueZ . All other platforms do not support this feature.

QLowEnergyController
*QLowEnergyController::
createPeripheral
(
QObject
*
parent
= nullptr)
Returns a new object of this class that is in the PeripheralRole and has the parent object parent . Typically, the next step is to call startAdvertising () on the returned object.
The controller uses the local default Bluetooth adapter for the connection management.
该函数在 Qt 5.7 引入。

Creates an instance of the service represented by serviceUuid 。 serviceUuid parameter must have been obtained via services ().
The caller takes ownership of the returned pointer and may pass a parent parameter as default owner.
This function returns a null pointer if no service with serviceUuid can be found on the remote device or the controller is disconnected.
This function can return instances for secondary services too. The include relationships between services can be expressed via QLowEnergyService::includedServices ().
If this function is called multiple times using the same service UUID, the returned QLowEnergyService instances share their internal data. Therefore if one of the instances initiates the discovery of the service details, the other instances automatically transition into the discovery state too.
另请参阅 services ().
Disconnects from the remote device.
任何 QLowEnergyService , QLowEnergyCharacteristic or QLowEnergyDescriptor instance that resulted from the current connection is automatically invalidated. Once any of those objects become invalid they remain invalid even if this controller object reconnects.
This function does nothing if the controller is in the UnconnectedState .
If the controller is in the peripheral role, it stops advertising and removes all services which have previously been added via addService (). To reuse the QLowEnergyController instance the application must re-add services and restart the advertising mode by calling startAdvertising ().
另请参阅 connectToDevice ().
Initiates the service discovery process.
The discovery progress is indicated via the serviceDiscovered () signal. The discoveryFinished () signal is emitted when the process has finished.
If the controller instance is not connected or the controller has performed the service discovery already this function will do nothing.
注意： Some platforms internally cache the service list of a device which was discovered in the past. This can be problematic if the remote device changed its list of services or their inclusion tree. If this behavior is a problem, the best workaround is to temporarily turn Bluetooth off. This causes a reset of the cache data. Currently Android exhibits such a cache behavior.
Returns the last occurred error or NoError .
Returns a textual representation of the last occurred error. The string is translated.
Returns the address of the local Bluetooth adapter being used for the communication.
If this class instance was requested to use the default adapter but there was no default adapter when creating this class instance, the returned QBluetoothAddress will be null.
另请参阅 QBluetoothAddress::isNull ().
Returns the address of the remote Bluetooth Low Energy device.
For a controller in the CentralRole , this value will always be the one passed in when the controller object was created. For a controller in the PeripheralRole , this value is the address of the currently connected client device. In particular, this address will be invalid if the controller is not currently in the ConnectedState .
Returns the type of remoteAddress (). By default, this value is initialized to PublicAddress .
另请参阅 setRemoteAddressType ().
Returns the unique identifier of the remote Bluetooth Low Energy device.
On macOS/iOS/tvOS CoreBluetooth does not expose/accept hardware addresses for LE devices; instead developers are supposed to use unique 128-bit UUIDs, generated by CoreBluetooth. These UUIDS will stay constant for the same central <-> peripheral pair and we use them when connecting to a remote device. For a controller in the CentralRole , this value will always be the one passed in when the controller object was created. For a controller in the PeripheralRole , this value is invalid.
该函数在 Qt 5.8 引入。
Returns the name of the remote Bluetooth Low Energy device, if the controller is in the CentralRole . Otherwise the result is unspecified.
该函数在 Qt 5.5 引入。
Requests the controller to update the connection according to 参数 . If the request is successful, the connectionUpdated () signal will be emitted with the actual new parameters. See the QLowEnergyConnectionParameters class for more information on connection parameters.
Android only indirectly permits the adjustment of this parameter set. The connection parameters are separated into three categories (high, low & balanced priority). Each category implies a pre-configured set of values for QLowEnergyConnectionParameters::minimumInterval (), QLowEnergyConnectionParameters::maximumInterval () 和 QLowEnergyConnectionParameters::latency (). Although the connection request is an asynchronous operation, Android does not provide a callback stating the result of the request. This is an acknowledged Android bug. Due to this bug Android does not emit the connectionUpdated () 信号。
注意： Currently, this functionality is only implemented on Linux and Android.

Returns the role that this controller object is in.
The role is determined when constructing a QLowEnergyController instance using createCentral () 或 createPeripheral ().
该函数在 Qt 5.7 引入。
Returns the list of services offered by the remote device, if the controller is in the CentralRole . Otherwise, the result is unspecified.
The list contains all primary and secondary services.

Sets the remote address type . The type is required to connect to the remote Bluetooth Low Energy device.
This attribute is only required to be set on Linux/ BlueZ systems with older Linux kernels (v3.3 or lower), or if CAP_NET_ADMIN is not set for the executable. The default value of the attribute is RandomAddress .
注意： All other platforms handle this flag transparently and therefore applications can ignore it entirely. On Linux, the address type flag is not directly exposed by BlueZ although some use cases do require this information. The only way to detect the flag is via the Linux kernel's Bluetooth Management API (kernel version 3.4+ required). This API requires CAP_NET_ADMIN capabilities though. If the local QtBluetooth process has this capability set QtBluetooth will use the API. This assumes that QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent was used prior to calling QLowEnergyController::connectToDevice ().
另请参阅 remoteAddressType ().
Starts advertising the data given in advertisingData and scanResponseData , using the parameters set in 参数 . The controller has to be in the PeripheralRole 。若 参数 indicates that the advertisement should be connectable, then this function also starts listening for incoming client connections.
Providing
scanResponseData
is not required, as it is not applicable for certain configurations of
参数
.
advertisingData
and
scanResponseData
are limited to 31 byte user data. If, for example, several 128bit uuids are added to
advertisingData
, the advertised packets may not contain all uuids. The existing limit may have caused the truncation of uuids. In such cases
scanResponseData
may be used for additional information.
If this object is currently not in the UnconnectedState ，什么都不发生。
注意： Advertising will stop automatically once a client connects to the local device.
