Why is delay required before starting advertisements after setting up SecurityManager? about mbed-os-example-ble

[pan-]

Privacy takes some time to setup. During that time, it is not possible to advertise otherwise you'd advertise with a non private address. The API signal to the user through a callback when privacy has been enabled and gap is ready to be used (advertising, scan, connection).

Ah, that's quite a recent update:

ARMmbed/mbed-os@bb35cba

I will have to update ChainableGapEventHandler to support the new onPrivacyEnabled() callback.

Perhaps the example should be updated in the future to explain this?

@pan- I added changes to address this question in the future into my BLE_SM PR. See above linked issue.

Thanks @AGlass0fMilk I believe changes where lost because it was present in https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os-example-ble/pull/323/files . I missed it during the review of the example rework.

I have included that in the rework of examples. Unfortunately due to unfortunate timing I couldn't merge my PR until after release. Please look at the development branch of examples.

Question has been answered and resolution is currently in the development branch, it will be in master upon next release.
