Ah, sorry. FWIW, requestLocationUpdates() and addProximityAlert() should be orthogonal -- the settings you supply requestLocationUpdates() should not impact the behavior of addProximityAlert(). > I beginning to think my mental model is all wrong.

I'm guessing you mean proximity alerts, not Pennsylvanias or precious armadillos or something. > Is there someway for me to monitor myLocationManager to see when he > fires off a PA? I don't think so, by design. LocationManager is a system service; your app does not even need to be running to get a proximity alert. The first edition of my Android book had a sample app that used proximity alerts. I dumped that sample app (after having to re-re-write it due to the constantly-changing location API) and now my book does not have a proximity alert sample. I'll see if I can work that into _Android Programming Tutorials_, though. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android Training in Sweden -- http://www.sotrium.com/training.php --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
