Hi,
On the Location-based Service APIs doc page, under Creating mock
LocationProviders, it's stated that:
One way to generate a suitable KML file is to get directions in Google
Earth. Right-click the "Route" entry that appears at the end of the
sequence of turns and select "Save as..." with "Save as type:" set to
"Kml *(*.kml)".
I did that, and called the file "kengps.kml". (I've included the file
at the end of this message).
I put the file in the folder (in my Android project):
/data/misc/location/myGPS
and restarted my project. However, when I execute
LocationManager locationManager =
(LocationManager) getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);
List<LocationProvider> providerList = locationManager.getProviders();
the list providerList still only contains one element, the built-in
"gps" provider.
What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance,
Ken Bowen
