Detailed Description▲
QNearFieldTarget provides a generic interface for communicating with an NFC target device. Both NFC Forum devices and NFC Forum Tag targets are supported by this class. All target specific classes subclass this class.
The type() function can be used to get the type of the target device. The uid() function returns the unique identifier of the target. The AccessMethods flags returns from the accessMethods() function can be tested to determine which access methods are supported by the target.
If the target supports NdefAccess, hasNdefMessage() can be called to test if the target has a stored NDEF message, readNdefMessages() and writeNdefMessages() functions can be used to get and set the NDEF message.
If the target supports TagTypeSpecificAccess, sendCommand() can be used to send a single proprietary command to the target and retrieve the response.

Member Function Documentation▲
[explicit] QNearFieldTarget::QNearFieldTarget(QObject *parent = nullptr)▲
Constructs a new near field target with parent.
[virtual] QNearFieldTarget::~QNearFieldTarget()▲
Destroys the near field target.
QNearFieldTarget::AccessMethods QNearFieldTarget::accessMethods() const▲
Returns the access methods support by this near field target.
[since 5.9] bool QNearFieldTarget::disconnect()▲
Closes the connection to the target to enable communication with the target from a different instance. The connection will also be closed, when the QNearFieldTarget is destroyed. A connection to the target device is (re)created to process a command or read/write a NDEF messages.
Returns true only if an existing connection was successfully closed; otherwise returns false.
This function was introduced in Qt 5.9.
void QNearFieldTarget::disconnected()▲
This signal is emitted when the near field target moves out of proximity.
void QNearFieldTarget::error(QNearFieldTarget::Error error, const QNearFieldTarget::RequestId &id)▲
This signal is emitted when an error occurs while processing request id. The error parameter describes the error.
bool QNearFieldTarget::hasNdefMessage()▲
Returns true if at least one NDEF message is stored on the near field target; otherwise returns false.
[since 5.9] int QNearFieldTarget::maxCommandLength() const▲
Returns the maximum number of bytes that can be sent with sendCommand. 0 will be returned if the target does not support sending tag type specific commands.
This function was introduced in Qt 5.9.

See also sendCommand()
void QNearFieldTarget::ndefMessageRead(const QNdefMessage &message)▲
This signal is emitted when a complete NDEF message has been read from the target.
See Also▲
See also readNdefMessages()
QNearFieldTarget::RequestId QNearFieldTarget::readNdefMessages()▲
Starts reading NDEF messages stored on the near field target. Returns a request id which can be used to track the completion status of the request. An invalid request id will be returned if the target does not support reading NDEF messages.
An ndefMessageRead() signal will be emitted for each NDEF message. The requestCompleted() signal will be emitted was all NDEF messages have been read. The error() signal is emitted if an error occurs.
An attempt to read an NDEF message from a tag, that is in INITIALIZED state as defined by NFC Forum, will fail with the NdefReadError, as the tag is formatted to support NDEF but does not contain a message yet.
void QNearFieldTarget::requestCompleted(const QNearFieldTarget::RequestId &id)▲
QVariant QNearFieldTarget::requestResponse(const QNearFieldTarget::RequestId &id) const▲
Returns the decoded response for request id. If the request is unknown or has not yet been completed an invalid QVariant is returned.
QNearFieldTarget::RequestId QNearFieldTarget::sendCommand(const QByteArray &command)▲
Sends command to the near field target. Returns a request id which can be used to track the completion status of the request. An invalid request id will be returned if the target does not support sending tag type specific commands.
The requestCompleted() signal will be emitted on successful completion of the request; otherwise the error() signal will be emitted.
Once the request completes successfully the response can be retrieved from the requestResponse() function. The response of this request will be a QByteArray.
See Also▲
See also requestCompleted(), waitForRequestCompleted()
QNearFieldTarget::Type QNearFieldTarget::type() const▲
Returns the type of tag type of this near field target.
QByteArray QNearFieldTarget::uid() const▲
Returns the UID of the near field target.
bool QNearFieldTarget::waitForRequestCompleted(const QNearFieldTarget::RequestId &id, int msecs = 5000)▲
Waits up to msecs milliseconds for the request id to complete. Returns true if the request completes successfully and the requestCompeted() signal is emitted; otherwise returns false.
QNearFieldTarget::RequestId QNearFieldTarget::writeNdefMessages(const QList<QNdefMessage> &messages)▲
Writes the NDEF messages in messages to the target. Returns a request id which can be used to track the completion status of the request. An invalid request id will be returned if the target does not support reading NDEF messages.
The requestCompleted() signal will be emitted when the write operation completes successfully; otherwise the error() signal is emitted.
