PeerHandle

open class PeerHandle

Opaque object used to represent a Wi-Fi Aware peer. Obtained from discovery sessions in DiscoverySessionCallback.onServiceDiscovered(PeerHandle, byte[], java.util.List) or received messages in DiscoverySessionCallback.onMessageReceived(PeerHandle, byte[]), and used when sending messages e,g, DiscoverySession.sendMessage(PeerHandle, int, byte[]), or when configuring a network link to a peer, e.g. DiscoverySession.createNetworkSpecifierOpen(PeerHandle) or DiscoverySession.createNetworkSpecifierPassphrase(PeerHandle, String).

Note that while a PeerHandle can be used to track a particular peer (i.e. you can compare the values received from subsequent messages) - it is good practice not to rely on it. Instead use an application level peer identifier encoded in the message, DiscoverySession.sendMessage(PeerHandle, int, byte[]), and/or in the Publish configuration's service-specific information field, PublishConfig.Builder.setServiceSpecificInfo(byte[]), or match filter, PublishConfig.Builder.setMatchFilter(java.util.List).

A parcelable handle object is available with ParcelablePeerHandle.
