@conceptdev - i vaguely recall this changing (i'm pretty sure it used to be a ==
) due to a community code change, do you recall here?
I presume @MichaelRoop means Characteristic.cs (not Descriptor.cs).
The git history suggests it's always been !=
which does seem wrong... I guess we need to test it out!
Yes indeed, the Descriptors property in Chracteristic.cs

Dear sir Thanks for developing Monkey Robotics, it has helped me a great deal developing an app for my master's thesis.I have successfully implemented a Bluetooth Low Enery communications app, though I have some questions.Is it possible for me to add my own UUID's to the list of known characteristics in the BLE characteristic list?The json string I mean is the one in this file:https://github.com/xamarin/Monkey.Robotics/blob/master/Source/Platform%20Stacks/Robotics.Mobile.Core/Bluetooth/LE/KnownCharacteristics.json Since I'm developing a proof-of-concept with a lot of new characteristics, I would like to add some values to that list.Is this possible, and if so, how?I have already tried the LoadItemsFromJson() method by placing the KnownCharacteristics.json file in the Xamarin.Forms resources as well as the Android specific resources, yet no result has been seen. Thanks in advanceGert-Jan

Hi Get-Jan,
I never saw the LoadItemsFromJson() method but I submitted a pull request on a branch that loads custom sets of characteristic GUIDs for the characteristic TYPES used in the library.
We used this to talk to a BlueRadio module rather than the module used on the target Netduino shield. The Monkey Robotics team is looking over the branch to see if it can be included in the project or modified for inclusion. If it is included you would just need to create a derived class which has the specific list of characteristic GUIDs. This would just be for the GUIDs of the characteristic TYPES they already handle in the library
If the branch does not get included I can confirm that it can be done. You can always modify your copy of the code and compile it. If you need to handle characteristic TYPES other than those handled in the library then it would be extra work

EDIT: btw, the file is of course Characteristic.cs, not Descriptor.cs And, I downloaded the project a few weaks ago.
In the Droid part it is indeed ==, not !=. So I've changed it in the Anroid part to if (this._descriptors == null), which results in a null reference exception a few lines below: foreach (var item in this._nativeCharacteristic.Descriptors) { with _nativeCharacteristic.Descriptors being null.
Any idea what could be the cause?
In the Robotics.Mobile.Core.iOS->Bluetooth->LE->Descriptor.cs line71
The this._descriptors is never initialized. It looks like the check should be if (this._descriptors == null) instead of if (this._descriptors != null). This is the only place the new is called
