Previously, the DeviceCommunicationService was invoked directly,
via
Intent intent = new Intent(foo, bar);
intent.setExtra(EXTRA_BAZ, baz);
startService(...);
and this was scattered throughout GadgetBridge.
Now there is a "frontend" available, so that you can call
the service more easily, like
GBApplication.deviceService().connect();
For a start, this client interface (DeviceService) actually
implements the same interface (EventHandler) as the receiving side
(DeviceSupport). This may change in the future.
This will also make testing much easier, because we can use
this client interface to invoke the test service as well.
- make FwAppInstallerActivity wait for a completely initialized device
- check basalt/aplite compatibility with pbw to be installed and report intead of crashing
- fix crash when trying to install pbw with all app slots full
NOTE:
- supports aplite and basalt emulator
- needs recompilation of Gadgetbridge with INTERNET permission
TODO:
- fix disconnect issues
- emulator special packet support
- string localization
- ...
- version information is now provided implicitly by device initialization
- ACTION_REQUEST_VERSIONINFO is now ACTION_REQUEST_DEVICEINFO and it will
return the current device state of the service without asking any DeviceSupport
instance.
- ACTION_CONNECT now implicitly answers with a device update intent if it
IS already connected.
In a second step, request the version from the device (and send updated
values then)
RequestVersionInfo is either a misnomer or misused, depending on your view.
It is actually used by activities to get the current state of thde device.
We now provide this as quickly as possible, with the drawback of sometimes
sending results twice.
- the BASE_UUID is shared between all BTLE devices, not miband specific. So are the UUID DESCRIPTORS. Hence these have been moved to AbstractBTLEDeviceSupport
- the gatt-characteristic-property-constants used previously in MiBandNotifyAction are also general, and exposed by the gatt subsystem, hence the specific action has been dropped moving the logic to the NotifyAction class
- the logic for checking the gatt-characteristic-property-constants has been extended also to the ReadAction and WriteAction class, this way we won't try to read (or write) a characteristic that isn't readable (or writeable)
Due to a bug in DeviceCommunicationService.isConnected(), devices using the
INITIALIZED state only worked when they had useAutoConnect set to true (Mi Band)
Now setting devices to INITIALIZED state to allow any action send to
DeviceCommunicationService is mandatory. As an exception only
REQUEST_VERSIONINFO will be also be allowed for CONNECTED state.
This also fixes a problem when notifications came in on the Pebble with 3.x
FW before we actually knew it was FW 3.x (INITZALIZED state on the Pebble
now implies that we know the FW version)
It's still very much possible to leak the descriptor (when an exception occurs
somewhere in between or anything else goes wrong). So maybe the whole thing
should be redesigned to be independent of files.
