hi there,
I'm still trying to find out why does loc =
locman.getLastKnownLocation("gps"); always returns null value
When I run this app, I telnet to the emulator and enter
geo fix 25 25
while the emulator is with my app running.
I still get null values.
can anyone help??
below my app source code:
package com.layout.test;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.location.Location;
import android.location.LocationManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class Pruebas extends Activity {
LocationManager locman = null;
Location loc = null;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
private void initActivity() {
this.locman = (LocationManager) getSystemService
(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
loc = locman.getLastKnownLocation("gps");
String myString = loc.toString();
TextView text = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.lblTest);
text.setText(myString);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu);
menu.add(0, 27, 0, "GetLocation").setIcon(
android.R.drawable.ic_menu_add);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onMenuItemSelected(int featureId, MenuItem item) {
switch (item.getItemId()) {
case 27:
initActivity();
return true;
}
return super.onMenuItemSelected(featureId, item);
}
}
