Hi
distanceTo() works perfect, but bearingTo() doesn't works for me.
myLocation.bearingTo(BuildingLocation) gives me 0º if i am facing the
Building and North direction, gives me 90º if i am facing the Building
and East Direction, gives me -180º if i am facing the Building and
South direction.
Then bearingTo doesn't works for me
i need that when the user faces to the direction of the Building
(facing north, facing south, facing east and facing west), a textview
("Building") or a image (the easiest one) must be draw on the screen
pointing the Building position. For this, i need to know if the phone
is facing to the GPS position of the building.
