Start with LocationManager: http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/location/LocationManager.html To find a LocationProvider, use one of the getProviders() methods on LocationManager. Then, given the name of the provider you want to use, call getCurrentLocation() or getLastKnownLocation(). > Map display and there, and I want to show my position. Maps are handled by MapView and MapActivity: http://code.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/maps/MapView.html http://code.google.com/android/reference/com/google/android/maps/MapActivity.html MapView has toggleShowMyLocation(), which is supposed to show your location on the map. However, for the emulator, you have no control over which of the fake location providers is used. The "Mapping with MapView and MapActivity" chapter of _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ (http://commonsware.com/Android/) has a section on how to implement show-my-location yourself, using layers, so you can control which location provider is used for the location. Another good example for dealing with maps and locations is the TrackBuilder utility profiled at: http://www.anddev.org/trackbuilder_for_mock_location_providers-t384.html -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Warescription: All titles, revisions, & ebook formats, just $35/year --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
