setBackgroundScanPeriod or setForegroundScanPeriod not implemented?

[johnnyzen]

Hi there

setting either:

setBackgroundScanPeriod setForegroundScanPeriod

doesnt seem to have any effect?

Can anyone advise?

[wiktor]

That's correct. I pushed them by accident, they will be implemented in the next version of API.

[LarryLan]

what's the default scan frequency?

[johnnyzen]

ah cool. thanks for update. do you have timeframe for next version?

[wiktor]

That will be available next week.

Scan frequency for background is going to be probably: 25s sleeping, 5s scanning.

[wiktor]

Implemented with 0.3 version.

Not working in 0.4.2.

Can you verify this @wiktor ?

[wiktor]

It is working. See notification example.

Here's what happens in my app that uses the 0.4.2 release:

onCreate: beaconManager.setBackgroundScanPeriod(TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(1), 0);

beaconManager.setMonitoringListener(new BeaconManager.MonitoringListener() { // ... @Override public void onEnteredRegion(Region region, List<Beacon> beacons) { Log.d("BEACONS", "onEnteredRegion"); // ... } });

onStart: beaconManager.startMonitoring(REGION); beaconManager.startRanging(REGION);

Logcat: D/EstimoteSDK﹕ com.estimote.sdk.service.BeaconService$IncomingHandler$1.run:497 Setting background scan period: ScanPeriodData{scanPeriodMillis=5000, waitTimeMillis=30000}

and the Log gets executed every 25 seconds.

Ranging listener and other parts of code omitted for brevity.

Haha :), that silly of me. I had put log statement before setting the value. The scan period is being changed but log actually displays previous value.

I'll fix it.

@wiktor I want to set this variables *beaconManager.setBackgroundScanPeriod(TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(10), 0); beaconManager.setForegroundScanPeriod(TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(10), 0); , but its only can configure in onCreate, Exist a way to configure another place, and set variables when app is running ?

For example in:

` protected void startScanning() { toolbar.setSubtitle("Buscando salas cercanas..."); adapter.replaceWith(Collections.emptyList());

beaconManager.setNearableListener(new BeaconManager.NearableListener() {
  @Override public void onNearablesDiscovered(List<Nearable> nearables) {

    /*beaconManager.setBackgroundScanPeriod(TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(10), 0);
    beaconManager.setForegroundScanPeriod(TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(10), 0);
    */

    adapter.replaceWith(nearables);
    toolbar.setSubtitle("Salas cercanas encontradas: " + nearables.size());
  }
});`
