I've seen it now. Looks better to me, but (as you said) wouldn't have helped me with my problem. > We have some other stuff we need to work out in this area with regard to > custom QGeoPositionInfoSources, so I'll add a note to try to work out how to > associate custom custom QGeoPositionInfoSources with the generic > QGeoAreaMonitor. Maybe let the programmer define what the default source is. I mean have a platform default, but make it overridable by the programmer. Something like: QGeoPositionInfoSource::setDefaultSource(QGeoPositionInfoSource s) This way there would be only one place where I have to specify my geo source and it would work with the existing geo area monitors. Just and idea, of course :) Cheers, Conny _______________________________________________ Qt-mobility-feedback mailing list Qt-mobility-feedback@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-mobility-feedback
