Examples

The examples live alongside the other SimpleBLE binding examples. Each is a console program that asks which adapter, peripheral, or characteristic to use:

• list_adapters: Print whether Bluetooth is enabled, and each adapter's name and address.
• list_backends: List the backends and the adapters each one provides.
• power_cycle: Power each adapter off and on again.
• scan: Discover peripherals and print their addresses, transmit power, manufacturer data, and services.
• connect: Connect to a peripheral and list its services, characteristics, and capabilities.
• read: Connect to a peripheral and read a characteristic.
• write: Connect to a peripheral and write text to a characteristic.
• notify: Connect to a peripheral and print a characteristic's notifications for five seconds.
• peripheral: Host a GATT service that echoes writes to subscribed clients.
• dongl: Scan with a Dongl, connect, and answer pairing requests.

Open an example's .dpr file in RAD Studio or Lazarus, or build it with Free Pascal:

fpc -Fu<simpledelphible>/source -Fi<simpledelphible>/source -Fl<simpledelphible>/lib/<platform> scan.dpr

Keep the native libraries for your platform next to the program when you run it.
