that is how to retrieve your location from the gps. But your code
requires another activity (such as the build-in google map app) to
listen for gps updates first.
To listen for gps update pro actively, try
private final LocationListener onLocationChange = new
LocationListener() {
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
if(location != null){
lastLocation = location;
}
}
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {
// required for interface, not used
}
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {
// required for interface, not used
}
public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status,
Bundle extras) {
// required for interface, not used
}
};
@Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,
1000L /*1 sec between update*/,
500.0f/*receive update if greater than 500m change*/ ,
onLocationChange);
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER,
1000L /*1 sec between update*/,
500.0f/*receive update if greater than 500m change*/ ,
onLocationChange);
}
