Search device

The scanner works like this:

1. Create scanner

When creating a scanner, you need to specify the type of device to search. It can be either one device or several. Here is example for one type of devices - BrainBit.

SensorFamily filter[] = {
			    SensorFamily::SensorLEBrainBit
		    };
OpStatus st;
auto scanner = createScanner(filter, sizeof(filter), &st);

Scanner scanner = new Scanner(SensorFamily.SensorLEBrainBit);

var scanner = Scanner( SensorFamily.SensorLEBrainBit)

Scanner scanner = new Scanner(SensorFamily.SensorLEBrainBit);

var scanner = new Scanner()
await scanner.init([SensorFamily.LEBrainBit])

scanner = Scanner([SensorFamily.LEBrainBit])

var scanner = NTScanner(sensorFamily: [NTSensorFamily.leBrainBit.rawValue])

NTScanner* scanner = [[NTScanner alloc] initWithSensorFamily:@[@(NTSensorFamilyLEBrainBit)]];

2. During the search, you can get a list of found devices using a callback. To do this, you need to subscribe to receive the event, and unsubscribe after the search is completed:

void sensorsCallback(SensorScanner* ptr, SensorInfo* sensors, int32_t szSensors, void* userData){
    
}
...
OpStatus st;
SensorsListenerHandle lHandle = nullptr;
addSensorsCallbackScanner(scanner, sensorsCallback, &lHandle, nullptr, &st);

scanner.sensorsChanged = (scanner, sensors) -> {
    sensors.forEach(sensorInfo -> Log.i("TAG", sensorInfo.getName() + ": " +  sensorInfo.getAddress()));
};
...
scanner.sensorsChanged = null;

scanner?.sensorsChanged = Scanner.ScannerCallback { scanner, sensors ->
    sensors.forEach { sensorInfo -> Log.i("TAG", sensorInfo.name+ ": " + sensorInfo.address) }
}
...
scanner.sensorsChanged = null

private void Scanner_Founded(IScanner scanner, IReadOnlyList<SensorInfo> sensors)
{
    foreach(SensorInfo sensorInfo in sensors){
        Console.WriteLine(sensorInfo.Name + ": " + sensorInfo.Address);
    }
}

scanner.EventSensorsChanged += Scanner_Founded;
...
scanner.EventSensorsChanged -= Scanner_Founded;

scanner.AddSensorListChanged(sensorFounded => {
	console.log(sensorFounded)
});
...
scanner.RemoveSensorListChanged();

def sensorFound(scanner, sensors):
   for i in range(len(sensors)):
       print('Sensor %s' % sensors[i])

scanner.sensorsChanged = sensorFound
...
scanner.sensorsChanged = None

scanner?.setSensorsCallback({ sensors in
    for info in sensors{
        print(info.name)
    }
})
...
scanner?.setSensorsCallback(nil)

[scanner setSensorsCallback:^(NSArray<NTSensorInfo *> * _Nonnull sensors) {
    for (NTSensorInfo* info in sensors) {
        NSLog(@"Founded %@", info.Name);
    } 
}];
...
[scanner setSensorsCallback:nil];

3. Start search

OpStatus outStatus;

startScanner(scanner, &outStatus);

scanner.start();

scanner.start();

scanner.Start();

scanner.Start()

scanner.start()

scanner?.startScan()

[scanner startScan];

4. Stop search

OpStatus outStatus;

stopScanner(scanner, &outStatus);

scanner.stop();

scanner.stop();

scanner.Stop();

scanner.Stop()

scanner.stop()

scanner?.stopScan()

[scanner stopScan];

5. Additionally, a list of found devices can be obtained using a separate method

int32_t szSensorsInOut = 32;
SensorInfo* sensors = new SensorInfo[szSensorsInOut];
OpStatus outStatus;
sensorsScanner(scanner, sensors, &szSensorsInOut, &outStatus);

List<SensorInfo> sensors = scanner.getSensors();

var sensors: List<SensorInfo>?  = scanner.sensors

IReadOnlyList<SensorInfo> sensors = scanner.Sensors;

var sensors = await scanner.Sensors()

sensors = scanner.sensors()

var sensors = scanner?.sensors

NSArray<NTSensorInfo*>* sensors = scanner.sensors;

`SensorInfo` contains information about device:

6. After you finish working with the scanner, you need to clean up the resources used

freeScanner(scanner);

scanner.close();

scanner.close()

scanner.Dispose();

scanner.Close();

del scanner

scanner = nil

scanner = nil;

Important! When restarting the search, the callback will only be called when a new device is found. If you need to get all devices found by the current scanner instance, call the appropriate method.
