how to do migration of advertising init in 14.2 sdk to sdk 15.3

Question

Hello All, 
 
 I have developed advertising init in 14.2 sdk (in segger ide). 
 (working on nrf52810 board) 
 I wanted to migrate same functionality to 15.3 sdk so how i can do it. 
 What is the modification is required in 15.3 SDK? 
 How to pass parameters to the "sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure " as like 14.2 sdk? 
 Anyone having code for this...? please assist on this. 
 I have attached advt init function below please check. 
 This is working properly in 14.2 SDK 
 ret_code_t err_code;
//uint8_t adata[31];
int i;
memset(adata, 0, sizeof(adata));
adata[0] = 30;
adata[1] = BLE_GAP_AD_TYPE_COMPLETE_LOCAL_NAME;

adata[2] = 'F';//0x46;
adata[3] = 'I';//0x49;

if (advertising_flag == 1)
{
adata[4] = 'N';//0x4E;
}
else if (advertising_flag == 2)
{
adata[4] = 'n';//0x4E;
}
adata[5] = 'D';//0x44;
adata[6] = '_';//0x5F;
adata[7] = 0x30 + temp_name_id;//'0';//0x30;
adata[8] = 0x30 + tempArray;//'2';//0x31;
// adata[9] = BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE;
// adata[10] = BLE_GAP_AD_TYPE_MANUFACTURER_SPECIFIC_DATA;
// now fill the 29 bytes with whatever you want
for(i = 9; i < sizeof(adata); i++)
adata[i] = 0;
// err_code = ble_advdata_set(&adata, NULL);
// APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

err_code = sd_ble_gap_adv_data_set(adata, sizeof(adata), NULL, 0);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
 
 Please help me out on this issue.. 
 Waiting for your response.

Take a look at the main.c file of the examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_blinky example, which shows how to set the complete device name (BLE_ADVDATA_FULL_NAME):

static void advertising_init(void)
{
 ret_code_t err_code;
 ble_advdata_t advdata;
 .
 .
 // Build and set advertising data.
 memset(&advdata, 0, sizeof(advdata));

 advdata.name_type = BLE_ADVDATA_FULL_NAME;
 .
 .
 err_code = ble_advdata_encode(&advdata, m_adv_data.adv_data.p_data, &m_adv_data.adv_data.len);
 APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
 .
 .
 ble_gap_adv_params_t adv_params;

 // Set advertising parameters.
 memset(&adv_params, 0, sizeof(adv_params));
 .
 .
 err_code = sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure(&m_adv_handle, &m_adv_data, &adv_params);
 APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
} 
 
 This will gett the device name through ble_advdata_encode()→name_encode()→sd_ble_gap_device_name_get() , and then set it. 
 
 As mentioned by Mttrinh in this ticket , you can change the device name through the SVCALL sd_ble_gap_device_name_set(). Do it before calling ble_advdata_encode(). 
 
 Best regards,
