Function Documentation

api_result_t dm_application_instance_set ( dm_application_instance_t const *  p_appl_instance,
dm_handle_t p_handle 
)

Function for Setting/Copying Application instance to Device Manager handle.

Parameters
[in]p_appl_instanceApplication instance to be set.
[out]p_handleDevice Manager handle for which the instance is to be copied.
Return values
NRF_SUCCESSOn success, else an error code indicating reason for failure.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATEIf the API is called without module initialization and/or application registration.
NRF_ERROR_NULLIf p_handle and/or p_addr is NULL.
api_result_t dm_handle_initialize ( dm_handle_t p_handle)

Function for initializing Device Manager handle.

Parameters
[in]p_handleDevice Manager handle to be initialized.
Return values
NRF_SUCCESSOn success.
NRF_ERROR_NULLIf p_handle is NULL.
Note
This routine is permitted before initialization of the module.
api_result_t dm_peer_addr_get ( dm_handle_t const *  p_handle,
ble_gap_addr_t p_addr 
)

Function for getting a peer's device address.

Parameters
[in]p_handleIdentifies the peer device whose address is requested. Can not be NULL.
[out]p_addrPointer where address is to be copied. Can not be NULL.
Return values
NRF_SUCCESSOn success, else an error code indicating reason for failure.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATEIf the API is called without module initialization and/or application registration.
NRF_ERROR_NULLIf p_handle and/or p_addr is NULL.
NRF_ERROR_NOT_FOUNDIf the peer could not be identified.
api_result_t dm_peer_addr_set ( dm_handle_t const *  p_handle,
ble_gap_addr_t const *  p_addr 
)

Function for setting/updating a peer's device address.

Parameters
[in]p_handleIdentifies the peer device whose address is requested to be set/updated.
[out]p_addrAddress to be set/updated.
Return values
NRF_SUCCESSOn success, else an error code indicating reason for failure.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATEIf the API is called without module initialization and/or application registration.
NRF_ERROR_NULLIf p_handle and/or p_addr is NULL.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_ADDRIf the peer is not identified by the handle provided by the application.
NRF_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMIf this procedure is requested while connected to the peer or if the address type was set to BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_PRIVATE_RESOLVABLE.
Note
Setting or updating a peer's device address is permitted only for a peer that is bonded and disconnected.
Updated address is reflected only after DM_EVT_DEVICE_CONTEXT_STORED is notified to the application for this bonded device instance. In order to avoid abnormal behaviour, it is recommended to not invite/initiate connections on the updated address unless this event has been notified.
