Detect if advertising?

[Lee Daniel Crocker]

I'm making a peripheral device that should be powered off most of the time, but never idle if on, so I want to make sure that it is always (1) connected, or (2) advertising. Checking the former is easy--just check "m_conn_handle" which is set by the connection event and unset by the disconnection event. Checking to see if I am advertising doesn't seem as simple. I gather that I can do a similar thing with radio notification, but the docs and examples there haven't been helpful to me.

I don't really see the problem. It's your code which restarts advertising, if that call doesn't fail, you're advertising, if you give the advertising no timeout then it will advertise forever, else you'll get a timeout event and then you know your advertising timed out.
