To get current location in iOS:
---> #import <coreLocation/coreLocation.h>
1- Create an instance of
CLLocationManager
2- Assign a delegate to the
CLLocationManager object
3- Set
desiredAccuracy &
distanceFilter
4- Call
startUpdatingLocation
5- locationManager reports the event to this method --->
locationManager:didUpdateLocations (iOS 6 & Later)
Sample Code:
-----> .h File
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <CoreLocation/CoreLocation.h>
@interface infinityViewController : UIViewController <CLLocationManagerDelegate>{
CLLocationManager *locationManager;
}
@end
----> .m File
#import "infinityViewController.h"
@interface infinityViewController ()
@end
@implementation infinityViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
[self getCurrentLocation];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
}
- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
{
[super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
- (void)getCurrentLocation
{
if (locationManager == nil )
locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
locationManager.delegate = self;
locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyKilometer;
locationManager.distanceFilter = 400;
[locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
}
- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager
didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations {
CLLocation* currentLocation = [locations lastObject];
NSDate* eventDate = currentLocation.timestamp;
NSTimeInterval howRecent = [eventDate timeIntervalSinceNow];
if (abs(howRecent) < 20.0) {
NSLog(@"Latitude Value: %+.6f\n",currentLocation.coordinate.latitude);
NSLog(@"Longitude Value %+.6f\n",currentLocation.coordinate.longitude);
}
}
@end
