LocationManagerSimulator

[John McKerrell]

Hi

The LocationManagerSimulator that I talked about last night can be
found here:

http://github.com/johnmckerrell/LocationManagerSimulator

It's really simple, just two files you need to drop into your project
and then replace CLLocationManager with LocationManagerSimulator in
your initialisation line. You need a GPX file with your test data in
and you'll need to convert it to a plist by running the shell script,
which is a basic wrapper of an XSLT stylesheet using xsltproc.

I'm sure there's lots of improvements that could be made but it worked
well enough for my purposes, it's on github so feel free to fork it.
I've forgotten to put any mention of a license in it but I'll probably
just make it public domain, happy for anyone to use it however they
want.

If you were interested in the app, it's called Basic Sat Nav and is
currently waiting for review.

P.S. I found the bug that was breaking my demo last night. The
simulator was passing through the time from the GPX, but my app was
ignoring locations that were more than 5 minutes old. I've now changed
the simulator to ignore the GPX time and pass through the current time.
