Does it really make sense to have this in public API targetted at application developers? I'm not so sure about that... Multiple places all setting it (some of which probably without rigorous QA) could lead to problems all too easily, even if that problem is just longer time to get a fix. Besides, the source itself probably already keeps this internally for the same reason you want it, as well as to use for ::lastKnownPosition(), so.. > > Ciao, > Alberto > -- Robin Burchell http://rburchell.com _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
