[PATCH] [RFC] doc: Add StartDiscoveryWithOptions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch proposes an extension to the D-Bus Adapter API to permit
the application to specify whether it wishes to discover BR/EDR
or LE devices.

Rationale is to permit an application, only interested in an LE device
with intent on using GATT to not cause the large power drain of
performing BR/EDR Inquiry.
