Detailed Description

\inmodule QtBluetooth

The QLowEnergyDescriptor class stores information about the Bluetooth Low Energy descriptor.

Since: 5.4

QLowEnergyDescriptor provides information about a Bluetooth Low Energy descriptor's name(), uuid(), and value(). Descriptors are encapsulated by Bluetooth Low Energy characteristics and provide additional contextual information about the characteristic (data format, notification activation and so on).

The descriptor value may be written via the QLowEnergyService instance that manages the service to which this descriptor belongs. The \l {QLowEnergyService::writeDescriptor()} function writes the new value. The \l {QLowEnergyService::descriptorWritten()} signal is emitted upon success. The cached value() of this object is updated accordingly.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QLowEnergyDescriptor() [1/2]

QLowEnergyDescriptor::QLowEnergyDescriptor ( )

Construct a new QLowEnergyDescriptor.

A default-constructed instance of this class is always invalid.

Definition at line 45 of file qlowenergydescriptor.cpp.

◆ QLowEnergyDescriptor() [2/2]

QLowEnergyDescriptor::QLowEnergyDescriptor ( const QLowEnergyDescriptor & other )

Construct a new QLowEnergyDescriptor that is a copy of other.

The two copies continue to share the same underlying data which does not detach upon write.

Definition at line 56 of file qlowenergydescriptor.cpp.

References other().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ ~QLowEnergyDescriptor()

QLowEnergyDescriptor::~QLowEnergyDescriptor ( )

Destroys the QLowEnergyDescriptor object.

Definition at line 84 of file qlowenergydescriptor.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ isValid()

bool QLowEnergyDescriptor::isValid ( ) const

Returns true if the QLowEnergyDescriptor object is valid, otherwise returns false.

An invalid descriptor instance is not associated with any service (default-constructed) or the associated service is no longer valid due to a disconnect from the underlying Bluetooth Low Energy device, for example. Once the object is invalid it cannot become valid anymore.

Note: If a QLowEnergyDescriptor instance turns invalid due to a disconnect from the underlying device, the information encapsulated by the current instance remains as it was at the time of the disconnect. Therefore it can be retrieved after the disconnect event.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

◆ name()

QString QLowEnergyDescriptor::name ( ) const

Returns the human-readable name of the descriptor.

The name is based on the descriptor's \l type(). The complete list of descriptor types can be found under \l {https://developer.bluetooth.org/gatt/descriptors/Pages/DescriptorsHomePage.aspx}{Bluetooth.org Descriptors}.

The returned string is empty if the \l type() is unknown.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ operator=()

QLowEnergyDescriptor & QLowEnergyDescriptor::operator= ( const QLowEnergyDescriptor & other )

Makes a copy of other and assigns it to this QLowEnergyDescriptor object.

The two copies continue to share the same service and controller details.
