如何在iOS中获得配对BLE设备？

Question

I connect BLE with CoreBluetooth and paired.

Now when I back to my app screen, I want to make sure that BLE already paired with iOS device.

1. If I store value in defaults and remove app, this case will not work to fetch device.

2. If user remove paired bluetooth peripheral from Setting -> Bluetooth -> list of devices this case also not work to identify.

    NSArray *ary = [self.bleMgr retrieveConnectedPeripheralsWithServices:@[[CBUUID UUIDWithString:@"180A"]]]; NSUUID *nsUUID = [[NSUUID alloc] initWithUUIDString:identifier]; NSArray *temp = [self.bleMgr retrievePeripheralsWithIdentifiers:@[nsUUID]]; 

Above both code lines not giving robust result.

How to get that paired BLE device in app?

Answer 1

The first time you discover a peripheral, the system generates an identifier (a UUID, represented by an NSUUID object) to identify the peripheral.

You can then store this identifier (using, for instance, the resources of the NSUserDefaults class), and later use it to try to reconnect to the peripheral using the retrievePeripheralsWithIdentifiers: method of the CBCentralManager class.

The following describes one way to use this method to reconnect to a peripheral you've previously connected to.

knownPeripherals = [myCentralManager retrievePeripheralsWithIdentifiers:savedIdentifiers];

The NSUUID class is not toll-free bridged with CoreFoundation's CFUUID. Use UUID strings to convert between CFUUIDRef and NSUUID, if needed. Two NSUUID objects are not guaranteed to be comparable by pointer value (as CFUUID is); use isEqual(_:) to compare two NSUUID instances.
