how to simulate a control point write?

You should be able to do something like this is main.

ble_evt_t ble_evt;
memset(&ble_evt, 0, sizeof(ble_evt_t));

ble_evt.header.evt_id = BLE_GATTS_EVT_RW_AUTHORIZE_REQUEST;

ble_dfu_buttonless_on_ble_evt(&ble_evt, NULL);

Is that what you are after?

Ok,

Lets think of this as a unit test problem. Is it possible to simulate receiving a BT message without writing another application to send the desired message?

Perhaps all I need to do is call "app_schedule_event_put(ble_evt_t*, ble_dfu_buttonless_on_ble_evt)"? If I used this to send a BLE_GATTS_EVT_WRITE and BLE_GATTS_EVT_RW_AUTHORIZE_REQUEST would this trigger the bootloader?

It looks like you could call ble_dfu_buttonless_on_ctrl_pt_write() too but where will the responses go? The first option is more desirable since it is closer to the metal.

Thanks

I'm sorry. I don't understand. What exactly do you mean by simulating? What is that you want to achieve?

Hello,

This comment has less to do with the DFU vs. simulating a control point write to kick-off the DFU operation. This ability is also helpful for unit testing.

Is it possible to simulate a control point write? For the DFU specifically, can I call ble_dfu_buttonless_on_pt_write() directly?

I don't see any problem with implementing your own buttonless DFU.

Sorry, my mistake. I thought the tags where visible.

SDK = v14 SoftDevice = v5.0 Device = s132 pca10040

Thanks!

Which SDK and SoftDevice are you using? Which bootloader and DFU example?
