You have two seperate classes, and the LastFoundLocation is an
instance varioable of those classes, so when you make a new one in
ViewDidLoad, it's just making a blank one.
Try making it in the AppDelegate, then pass the LocationHelper
instance into the other class, and use it there. Don't make a new one
in the ViewDidLoad.
Also, the LocationManager is async, so it may not have found a
location by the time you get to ViewDidLoad - make sure you handle not
having one :)
So:
In AppDelegate:
LocationHelper helper;
In the FinishedLoading of AppDelegate:
helper = new LocationHelper();
helper.GetForCurrentLocation();
//you have this already - make the other view, and eventually open it....
OtherClass cls = new OtherClass();
cls.locationHelper = helper;
In the ViewDidLoad of a other class
if (locationHelper.HasFoundLocation)
{
var test = lastFoundLocation.Longitude.ToString();
Console.WriteLine(test);
}
And change the LocationHelper to set a bool of HasFoundLocation to
true when it finds it.
A better way may be to rewrite the LocationHelper as a singleton
(google it :) ), so you only have one instance anywhere. And maybe
OtherClass could hook into an event/delegate on LocationHelper so
LocationHelper can tell it when it has something, not the other way
around.
