iOS CLLocation - Not Working...

[RMK-Jacob]

Hi,

So I am using CLLocation and CLLocation manager and the method locationManager:didUpdateToLocation:fromLocation isn't running. In my viewDidLoad I placed the following:

theLocation = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
[theLocation setDelegate: self];
[theLocation setDesiredAccuracy:kCLLocationAccuracyBest];
theLocation.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone;
[theLocation startUpdatingLocation];

In the locationManager:didUpdateToLocation:fromLocation i placed a NSLog. The info that I put into the NSLog isn't showing up in the debugger, so I know that the
locationManager:didUpdateToLocation:fromLocation method isn't even running.

Please try to help me and tell me what I should do to fix.

UPDATE: The problem seems to be that the locationManager:didUpdateToLocation:fromLocation method is returning (null).

Thanks,
RMK-JACOB

Device or simulator?

 

[RMK-Jacob]

Both. I tried on device: doesn't work... I tried on simulator: doesn't work

Did you deny the app access:

"The user has the option of denying an application’s access to the location service data. During its initial uses by an application, the Core Location framework prompts the user to confirm that using the location service is acceptable. If the user denies the request, the CLLocationManager object reports an appropriate error to its delegate during future requests."

Nope. I granted access. The method locationManager:didUpdateToLocation:fromLocation is returning a (null) value for no reason.

Post your code. The complete code of the whole method, not separate isolated lines.


Isolated lines

have
​

no context
​

It's not

even clear

if

they're in
​

the same method.

You said:

That method is a void method. It doesn't return anything. You mean one or more of the values passed into that method are null?

As the other posters said, post the full code for your locationManager:didUpdateToLocation:fromLocation: method.

The didUpdateToLocationCLLocation*)newLocation. The newLocation variable is null. Sorry for not specifying what was wrong.
