Add void pointer argument to setCustomGapHandler.

The previous implementation incorrectly used the service's end handle
when searching for descriptors, which caused it to retrieve descriptors
from subsequent characteristics as well.

This fix calculates the correct end handle by finding the next
characteristic's handle and using (next_handle - 1) as the search limit.
This ensures only descriptors belonging to the current characteristic
are retrieved.

Fixes incorrect descriptor retrieval when multiple characteristics
exist in the same service.

+- All functions that take a time input parameter now expect the value to be in milliseconds instead of seconds.
+- Removed Eddystone URL as it has been shutdown by google since 2021.
+- NimBLESecurity class removed.
+- `NimBLEDevice` Ignore list functions removed.
+- `NimBLEDevice::startSecurity` now returns a `bool`, true on success, instead of an int to be consistent with the rest of the library.
+- `NimBLEDevice::getInitialized` renamed to `NimBLEDevice::isInitialized`.
+- `NimBLEDevice::setPower` no longer takes the `esp_power_level_t` and `esp_ble_power_type_t`, instead only an integer value in dbm units is accepted.
+- `NimBLEDevice::setOwnAddrType` no longer takes a `bool nrpa` parameter.
+- `NimBLEDevice::getClientListSize` replaced with `NimBLEDevice::getCreatedClientCount`.
+- `NimBLEDevice::getClientList` was removed.
+- `NimBLEServer::disconnect` now returns `bool`, true = success,  instead of `int` to be consistent with the rest of the library.
+- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChanged` renamed to `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChange` to be consistent with the client callback.
+- `NimBLEServer::getPeerIDInfo` renamed to `NimBLEServer::getPeerInfoByHandle` to better describe it's use.
+- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onPassKeyRequest` has been replaced with `NimBLEServer::onPassKeyDisplay` which should display the pairing pin that the client is expected to send.
+- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onAuthenticationComplete` now takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter.
+- `NimBLEClient::getServices` now returns a const reference to std::vector<NimBLERemoteService*> instead of a pointer to the internal vector.

+- `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onPassKeyRequest` has been changed to `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onPassKeyEntry` which takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter and does not return a value. Instead or returning a value this callback should prompt a user to enter a pin number which is sent later via `NimBLEDevice::injectPassKey`.
+- `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onConfirmPIN` renamed to `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onConfirmPasskey` and no longer returns a value and now takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter. This should be used to prompt a user to confirm the pin on the display (YES/NO) after which the response should be sent with `NimBLEDevice::injectConfirmPasskey`.
+- `NimBLEAdvertising::setMinPreferred` and `NimBLEAdvertising::setMaxPreferred` have been removed, use `NimBLEAdvertising::setPreferredParams` instead.

+- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onScanEnd`, replaces the scanEnded callback passed to `NimBLEScan::start` and now takes a `const NimBLEScanResults&` and `int reason` parameter.
+- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onDiscovered`, This is called immediately when a device is first scanned, before any scan response data is available and takes a `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` parameter.
+- `NimBLEScan::stop` will no longer call the `onScanEnd` callback as the caller should know its been stopped when this is called.
+- `NimBLEScan::clearDuplicateCache` has been removed as it was problematic and only for the esp32. Stop and start the scanner for the same effect.

+- `NimBLEAdvertisedDevice` Timestamp removed, if needed then the app should track the time from the callback.
+- `NimBLECharacteristic::notify` no longer takes a `bool is_notification` parameter, instead `indicate()` should be called to send indications.
+- `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::onNotify` removed as unnecessary, the library does not call notify without app input.
+- `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::onStatus` No longer takes a `status` parameter, refer to the return code for success/failure.
+- `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getRemoteService` now returns a `const NimBLERemoteService*` instead of non-const.

+- `NimBLEService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic*>&` instead of std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic *>.
+- `NimBLEUUID::getNative` method replaced with `NimBLEUUID::getBase` which returns a read-only pointer to the underlying `ble_uuid_t` struct.
+- `NimBLEUUID`; `msbFirst` parameter has been removed from constructor, caller should reverse the data first or call the new `reverseByteOrder` method after.
+- `NimBLEAddress` constructor; default value for the `type` parameter removed, caller should know the address type and specify it.
+- `NimBLEAddress::getNative` replaced with `NimBLEAddress::getBase` and now returns a pointer to `const ble_addr_t` instead of a pointer to the address value.

+# Migrating from 1.x to 2.x
+
+Nearly all of the codebase has been updated and changed under the surface, which has greatly reduced the resource use of the library and improved it's performance. To be able to support these changes it required various API changes and additions.
+
+This guide will help you migrate your application code to use the new API.
+
+The changes listed here are only the required changes that must be made, and a short overview of options for migrating existing applications.

+## General changes
+- All functions that take a time parameter now require the time in milliseconds instead of seconds, i.e. `NimBLEScan::start(10000); // 10 seconds`
+- `NimBLESecurity` class has been removed it's functionality has been merged into the `NimBLEServer` and `NimBLEClient` classes.
+- All connection oriented callbacks now receive a reference to `NimBLEConnInfo` and the `ble_gap_conn_desc` parameter has been replaced with `NimBLEConnInfo` in the functions that received it.  
+    For instance `onAuthenticationComplete(ble_gap_conn_desc* desc)` signature is now `onAuthenticationComplete(NimBLEConnInfo& connInfo)` and  
+    `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onConnect(NimBLEServer* pServer)` signature is now `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onConnect(NimBLEServer* pServer, NimBLEConnInfo& connInfo)`.  
+<br/>
+
+## BLE Device
+- Ignore list functions and vector have been removed, the application should implement this if desired. It was no longer used by the library.
+- `NimBLEDevice::startSecurity` now returns a `bool`, true on success, instead of an int to be consistent with the rest of the library.
+- `NimBLEDevice::getInitialized` renamed to `NimBLEDevice::isInitialized`.
+- `NimBLEDevice::setPower` no longer takes the `esp_power_level_t` and `esp_ble_power_type_t`, instead only an integer value in dbm units is accepted, so instead of `ESP_PWR_LVL_P9` an `int8_t` value of `9` would be used for the same result.
+- `NimBLEDevice::setOwnAddrType` no longer takes a `bool nrpa` parameter, the random address type will be determined by the bits the in the address instead.  
+    Note: If setting a custom address, it should be set with `NimBLEDevice::setOwnAddr` first before calling  `NimBLEDevice::setOwnAddrType`.
+- `NimBLEDevice::getClientListSize` replaced with `NimBLEDevice::getCreatedClientCount`.
+- `NimBLEDevice::getClientList` was removed and `NimBLEDevice::getConnectedClients` can be used instead which returns a `std::vector` of pointers to the connected client instances. This was done because internally the clients are managed in a `std::array` which replaced the 'std::list`.  
+- `NimBLEDevice::getClientByID(uint16_t conn_id);` has been changed to `NimBLEDevice::getClientByHandle(uint16_t connHandle)`
+<br/>
+
+## BLE Addresses
+NimBLEAddress comparisons have changed to now consider the address type. If 2 address values are the same but the type is different then they are no longer considered equal. This is a correction to the 1.x version which did not consider the type, whereas the BLE specification states:
+> Whenever two device addresses are compared, the comparison shall include the device address type (i.e. if the two addresses have different types, they are different even if the two 48-bit addresses are the same).
+
+This means that if in your application you create a NimBLEAddress instance and are comparing a scan result or some other address created by the library and you did not define the address type then the comparison may fail.
+The default address type is public `0`, whereas many devices use a random `1` address type.
+If you experience this issue please create your address instances with the address type specified, i.e. `NimBLEAddress address("11:22:33:44:55:66", TYPE_HERE)`
+
+`NimBLEAddress::getNative` has been removed and replaced with `NimBLEAddress::getBase`.
+This returns a pointer to `const ble_addr_t` instead of a pointer to the address value that `getNative` did. The value can be accessed through this struct via `ble_addr_t.val` and type is in `ble_addr_t.type`.  
+<br/>
+
+## BLE UUID's
+- `NimBLEUUID::getNative` method replaced with `NimBLEUUID::getBase` which returns a read-only pointer to the underlying `ble_uuid_t` struct.
+- `NimBLEUUID`; `msbFirst` parameter has been removed from constructor, caller should reverse the data first or call the new `NimBLEUUID::reverseByteOrder` method after.  
+<br/>
+
+## Server
+- `NimBLEServer::disconnect` now returns `bool`, true = success,  instead of `int` to be consistent with the rest of the library.
+- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChanged` renamed to `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChange` to be consistent with the client callback.
+- `NimBLEServer::getPeerIDInfo` renamed to `NimBLEServer::getPeerInfoByHandle` to better describe it's use.
+- Advertising is no longer automatically restarted when a peer disconnects, to re-enable this feature either call `NimBLEServer::advertiseOnDisconnect(true);` after creating the server or manually restart advertising in the `onDisconnect` callback.  
+<br/>
+
+### Services
+- `NimBLEService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic*>&` instead of a copy of the vector.  
+<br/>
+
+### Characteristics
+- `NimBLECharacteristic::notify` no longer takes a `bool is_notification` parameter, instead `NimBLECharacteristic::indicate` should be called to send indications.  
+<br/>
+
+#### Characteristic callbacks
+- `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::onNotify` removed as unnecessary, the library does not call notify without app input.
+- `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::onStatus` No longer takes a `status` parameter, refer to the return code parameter for success/failure.  
+<br/>
+
+### Server Security
+- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onPassKeyRequest` has been renamed to `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onPassKeyDisplay` as it is intended that the device should display the passkey for the client to enter.
+- `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onAuthenticationComplete` now takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter.  
+<br/>
+
+## Client
+- `NimBLEClient::getServices` now returns a const reference to std::vector<NimBLERemoteService*> instead of a pointer to the internal vector.
+- `NimBLEClient::getConnId` has been renamed to `getConnHandle` to be consistent with bluetooth terminology.
+- `NimBLEClient::disconnect` now returns a `bool`, true on success, instead of an `int` to be consistent with the rest of the library.  
+<br/>
+
+### Client callbacks
+- `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onConfirmPIN` renamed to `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onConfirmPasskey`,  takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter and no longer returns a value. This should be used to prompt a user to confirm the pin on the display (YES/NO) after which the response should be sent with `NimBLEDevice::injectConfirmPasskey`.
+- `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onPassKeyRequest` has been changed to `NimBLEClientCallbacks::onPassKeyEntry` which takes a `NimBLEConnInfo&` parameter and no longer returns a value. Instead of returning a value this callback should prompt a user to enter a passkey number which is sent later via `NimBLEDevice::injectPassKey`.  
+<br/>
+
+### Remote Services
+- `NimBLERemoteService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLERemoteCharacteristic*>&` instead of non-const `std::vector<NimBLERemoteCharacteristic*>*`.  
+<br/>
+
+### Remote Characteristics
+- `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getRemoteService` now returns a `const NimBLERemoteService*` instead of non-const.
+- `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::registerForNotify`, has been removed, the application should use `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::subscribe` and `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::unSubscribe`.
+
+        `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readUInt32`
+        `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readUInt16`
+        `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readUInt8`
+        `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readFloat`
+
+Have been removed, instead the application should use `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readValue<type\>`.  
+<br/>
+
+## Scan
+- `NimBLEScan::stop` will no longer call the `onScanEnd` callback as the caller should know it has been stopped either by initiating a connection or calling this function itself.
+- `NimBLEScan::clearDuplicateCache` has been removed as it was problematic and only for the original esp32. The application should stop and start the scanner for the same effect or call `NimBLEScan::start` with the new `bool restart` parameter set to true.
+- `NimBLEScanResults::getDevice` methods now return `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` instead of a non-const pointer.
+- `NimBLEScanResults` iterators are now `const_iterator`.
+- The callback parameter for `NimBLEScan::start` has been removed and the blocking overload of `NimBLEScan::start` has been replaced by an overload of `NimBLEScan::getResults` with the same parameters.
+
+    So if your code prior was this:
+
+        NimBLEScanResults results = pScan->start(10, false);
+
+    It should now be:
+
+        NimBLEScanResults results = pScan->getResults(10000, false); // note the time is now in milliseconds
+
+- `NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks` Has been replaced by `NimBLEScanCallbacks` which contains the following methods:
+- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onResult`, functions the same as the old `NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks::onResult` but now takes aa `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` instead of non-const.
+- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onScanEnd`, replaces the scanEnded callback passed to `NimBLEScan::start` and now takes a `const NimBLEScanResults&` and `int reason` parameter.
+- - `NimBLEScanCallbacks::onDiscovered`, This is called immediately when a device is first scanned, before any scan response data is available and takes a `const NimBLEAdvertisedDevice*` parameter.  
+- `NimBLEScan::setAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks(NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks* callbacks, bool wantDuplicates)` has been changed to `NimBLEScan::setScanCallbacks(NimBLEScanCallbacks* callbacks, bool wantDuplicates);`
+<br/>
+
+### Advertised Device
+- `NimBLEAdvertisedDevice::hasRSSI` removed as redundant, RSSI is always available.
+- `NimBLEAdvertisedDevice::getPayload` now returns `const std::vector<uint8_t>&` instead of a pointer to internal memory.
+- `NimBLEAdvertisedDevice` Timestamp removed, if needed then the app should track the time from the callback.  
+<br/>
+
+## Advertising
+- `NimBLEAdvertising::setMinPreferred` and `NimBLEAdvertising::setMaxPreferred` have been removed and replaced by `NimBLEAdvertising::setPreferredParams` which takes both the min and max parameters.
+- Advertising the name and TX power of the device will no longer happen by default and should be set manually by the application using `NimBLEAdvertising::setName` and `NimBLEAdvertising::addTxPower`.
+- `NimBLEAdvertising::setAdvertisementType` has been renamed to `NimBLEAdvertising::setConnectableMode` to better reflect it's function.
+- `NimBLEAdvertising::setScanResponse` has been renamed to `NimBLEAdvertising::enableScanResponse` to better reflect it's function.
+- `NimBLEAdvertising`; Scan response is no longer enabled by default.
+- `NimBLEAdvertising::start` No longer takes a callback pointer parameter, instead the new method `NimBLEAdvertising::setAdvertisingCompleteCallback` should be used to set the callback function.  
+<br/>
+
+## Beacons
+- Removed Eddystone URL as it has been shutdown by google since 2021.
+- `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::setTemp` now takes an `int16_t` parameter instead of float to be friendly to devices without floating point support.
+- `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::getTemp` now returns `int16_t` to work with devices that don't have floating point support.
+- `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::setData` now takes a reference to * `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::BeaconData` instead of `std::string`.
+- `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::getData` now returns a reference to * `NimBLEEddystoneTLM::BeaconData` instead of `std::string`.
+- `NimBLEBeacon::setData` now takes `const NimBLEBeacon::BeaconData&` instead of `std::string`.
+- `NimBLEBeacon::getData` now returns `const NimBLEBeacon::BeaconData&` instead of `std::string`.  
+<br/>
+
+## Utilities
+- `NimBLEUtils::dumpGapEvent` function removed.
+- `NimBLEUtils::buildHexData` replaced with `NimBLEUtils::dataToHexString`, which returns a `std::string` containing the hex string.

-# Server
-
-`NimBLEService::NimBLEService::createCharacteristic` takes a 3rd parameter to specify the maximum data size that can be stored by the characteristic. This allows for limiting the RAM use of the characteristic in cases where small amounts of data are expected.  
-<br/>
-
-`NimBLECharacteristic::setValue(const T &s)`
-`NimBLEDescriptor::setValue(const T &s)`
-
-Now use the `NimbleAttValue` class and templates to accommodate standard and custom types/values.
-
-**Example**
-```
-struct my_struct {
-    uint8_t  one;
-    uint16_t two;
-    uint32_t four;
-    uint64_t eight;
-    float    flt;
-} myStruct;
-
-    myStruct.one = 1;
-    myStruct.two = 2;
-    myStruct.four = 4;
-    myStruct.eight = 8;
-    myStruct.flt = 1234.56;
-
-    pCharacteristic->setValue(myStruct);
-
-    // Arduino String support
-    String myString = "Hello";
-    pCharacteristic->setValue(myString);
- ```
-This will send the struct to the receiving client when read or a notification sent.
-
-`NimBLECharacteristic::getValue` now takes an optional timestamp parameter which will update it's value with the time the last value was received. In addition an overloaded template has been added to retrieve the value as a type specified by the user.
-
-**Example**
-```
-    time_t timestamp;
-    myStruct = pCharacteristic->getValue<myStruct>(&timestamp); // timestamp optional
-```
-<br/>
-
-**Advertising will automatically start when a client disconnects.**
-
-A new method `NimBLEServer::advertiseOnDisconnect(bool)` has been implemented to control this, true(default) = enabled.  
-<br/>
-
-`NimBLEServer::removeService` takes an additional parameter `bool deleteSvc` that if true will delete the service and all characteristics / descriptors belonging to it and invalidating any pointers to them.
-
-If false the service is only removed from visibility by clients. The pointers to the service and it's characteristics / descriptors will remain valid and the service can be re-added in the future using `NimBLEServer::addService`.  
-<br/>
-
-<a name="advertising"></a>
-# Advertising
-`NimBLEAdvertising::start`
-
-Now takes 2 optional parameters, the first is the duration to advertise for (in milliseconds), the second is a callback that is invoked when advertising ends and takes a pointer to a `NimBLEAdvertising` object (similar to the `NimBLEScan::start` API).
-
-This provides an opportunity to update the advertisement data if desired.
-
-Also now returns a bool value to indicate if advertising successfully started or not.  
-<br/>
-
-<a name="client"></a>
-# Client
-
-`NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readValue(time_t\*, bool)`
-`NimBLERemoteDescriptor::readValue(bool)`
-
-Have been added as templates to allow reading the values as any specified type.
-
-**Example**
-```
-struct my_struct{
-    uint8_t  one;
-    uint16_t two;
-    uint32_t four;
-    uint64_t eight;
-    float    flt;
-}myStruct;
-
-    time_t timestamp;
-    myStruct = pRemoteCharacteristic->readValue<myStruct>(&timestamp); // timestamp optional
-```
-<br/>
-
-`NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::registerForNotify`  
-Has been removed.
-
-`NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::subscribe` and `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::unsubscribe` have been implemented to replace it.  
-
-The internally stored characteristic value is now updated when notification/indication is recieved. Making a callback no longer required to get the most recent value unless timing is important. Instead, the application can call `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getValue` to get the most recent value any time.  
-<br/>  
-
-The `notify_callback` function is now defined as a `std::function` to take advantage of using `std::bind` to specify a class member function for the callback.
-
-Example:
-```
-using namespace std::placeholders;
-notify_callback callback = std::bind(&<ClassName>::<memberFunctionCallbackName>, this, _1, _2, _3, _4);
-
-<remoteCharacteristicInstance>->subscribe(true, callback);
-```
-
-`NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::readValue` and `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getValue` take an optional timestamp parameter which will update it's value with
-the time the last value was received.
-
-> NimBLEClient::getService  
-> NimBLERemoteService::getCharacteristic  
-> NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getDescriptor
-
-These methods will now check the respective vectors for the attribute object and, if not found, will retrieve (only)
-the specified attribute from the peripheral.
-
-These changes allow more control for the user to manage the resources used for the attributes.  
-<br/>
-
-`NimBLEClient::connect()` can now be called without an address or advertised device parameter. This will connect to the device with the address previously set when last connected or set with `NimBLEDevice::setPeerAddress()`.
-
-<a name="general"></a>
-# General
-To reduce resource use all instances of `std::map` have been replaced with `std::vector`.
-
-Use of `FreeRTOS::Semaphore` has been removed as it was consuming too much ram, the related files have been left in place to accomodate application use.
-
-Operators `==`, `!=` and `std::string` have been added to `NimBLEAddress` and `NimBLEUUID` for easier comparison and logging.
-
-New constructor for `NimBLEUUID(uint32_t, uint16_t, uint16_t, uint64_t)` added to lower memory use vs string construction. See: [#21](https://github.com/h2zero/NimBLE-Arduino/pull/21).
-
-Security/pairing operations are now handled in the respective `NimBLEClientCallbacks` and `NimBLEServerCallbacks` classes, `NimBLESecurity`(deprecated) remains for backward compatibility.
-
-Configuration options have been added to add or remove debugging information, when disabled (default) significantly reduces binary size.
-In ESP-IDF the options are in menuconfig: `Main menu -> ESP-NimBLE-cpp configuration`.  
-For Arduino the options must be commented / uncommented in nimconfig.h.
-
-Characteristics and descriptors now use the `NimBLEAttValue` class to store their data. This is a polymorphic container class capable of converting to/from many different types efficiently. See: [#286](https://github.com/h2zero/NimBLE-Arduino/pull/286)

 # Usage Tips
 
-## Put BLE functions in a task running on the NimBLE stack core
+## Threadsafety
 
-When commands are sent to the stack from a different core they can experience delays in execution.  
-This library detects this and invokes the esp32 IPC to reroute these commands through the correct core but this also increases overhead.  
-Therefore it is highly recommended to create tasks for BLE to run on the same core, the macro `CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_PINNED_TO_CORE` can be used to set the core.
-<br/>  
+This library is threadsafe. Attribues can be manipulated freely.

 Most of the functions in this library return something that should be checked before proceeding.  
 <br/>  
 
+## Persisted bonds can be lost due to low MAX_CCCDS
+
+The symptom: CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_MAX_BONDS is set to N, but a smaller number of bonds is preserved, perhaps even a single bond. The limitation of persisted bonds can be observed via NimBLEDevice::getNumBonds(). The number may not reach CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_MAX_BONDS.
+
+Cause: For each bond, NimBLE persists each of the CCCD (client characteristic configuration descriptor) values that have been subscribed
+to by the client. If CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_MAX_CCCDS is too low, the older CCCD values are overwritten by the newer ones. The loss of the older
+CCCDs values results in those bonds being lost.
+
+Fix: Increase CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_MAX_CCCDS. These take approximately 40 bytes in NVS, 2 bytes for the CCCD value and the NVS metadata overhead. The value of
+CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_MAX_CCCDS should conservatively be no less than (CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_MAX_BONDS * {maximum number of characteristics that can be subscribed to}).
+
+## Device 'Local Name'
+
+'Local name' refers to how the device is seen and displayed.
+
+A devices 'Local name' can be thought of as coming from two places, the <i>Advertising "Local name"</i> and the <i>the GATT Device Name</i>.
+
+### Advertising "Local name"
+
+Field found in the advertising data payload. Value is set via NimBLEAdvertising::setName().
+
+### GATT Device Name
+
+Characteristic UUID 0x2A00 in the Generic Access service. Set via NimBLEDevice::init() or NimBLEDevice::setDeviceName().
+
+This characteristic is read <b>after</b> connecting to the device.
+
+### Important considerations
+
+* OSes cache the <i>'GATT Device Name'</i>.
+* OSes update the device name based on the <i>'GATT Device Name'</i> after connecting to a device. This means that if you set the <i>Advertising 'Local name'</i> to "ABCD" but the <i>'GATT Device Name'</i> to "12345", the device will be seen as "ABCD" until connecting to the device, at which time the devices name will change to "12345".
+* If no <i>'Advertising "Local name"'</i> is set, OSes, such as iOS, may display the devices name as 'Unnamed' until the device is connected to, at which time the <i>'GATT Device Name'</i> is read and used instead.
+
+It is recommended that both <i>'Advertising "Local name"'</i> <b>and</b> <i>'GATT Device Name'</i> be set appropriately, after considering the above described behavior.
+

+/**
+ *  Continuous Scan Example
+ *
+ *  This example demonstrates how to continuously scan for BLE devices.
+ *  When devices are found the onDiscovered and onResults callbacks will be called with the device data.
+ *  The scan will not store the results, only the callbacks will be used
+ *  When the scan timeout is reached the onScanEnd callback will be called and the scan will be restarted.
+ *  This will clear the duplicate cache in the controller and allow the same devices to be reported again.
+ *
+ *  Created: on March 24 2020

-
-   Create a BLE server that, once we receive a connection, will send periodic notifications.
-   The service advertises itself as: 4fafc201-1fb5-459e-8fcc-c5c9c331914b
-   And has a characteristic of: beb5483e-36e1-4688-b7f5-ea07361b26a8
-
-   The design of creating the BLE server is:
-   1. Create a BLE Server
-   2. Create a BLE Service
-   3. Create a BLE Characteristic on the Service
-   4. Create a BLE Descriptor on the characteristic
-   5. Start the service.
-   6. Start advertising.
-
-   A connect hander associated with the server starts a background task that performs notification
-   every couple of seconds.
