I'm using QtBluetooth (5.7.0) to build a device which can read various Bluetooth Low Energy devices. I've been successful in reading lots of devices, heart rate monitors and really any device which reads/writes BLE characteristics. As I test more devices I find that a lot of newer devices pass the desired data directly in the BLE advertising data. As of Qt 5.7 I see no way to access this data directly. I assume the underlying code uses it otherwise it wouldn't be able to read the devices in the first place. I noticed the early versions of Qt 5.8 include methods to broadcast BLE advertising data, but I still don't see any methods to read said data. Is this in the plan or could perhaps be simple to expose the underlying methods?
Thanks,
Chuck Claunch
