Location services on the new iOS VM

[Tim Gaul]

Hi all

I build my app using the new VM as a test and my section of code is as follow:

            setLocation(LocationManager.getLocationManager().getCurrentLocationSync(20000));  

            if (getLocation() == null) {
                Location l = LocationManager.getLocationManager().getLastKnownLocation();
            }

iOS appears to take 20 seconds to get the location, but no matter what I do it returns coordinates 0, 0 whether for last known location or not. I'm not sure which line is returning the coordindates.

I've rebuild with the swtich ios.newVM=false and the am no longer experiencing the issue.

Please let me know if I'm missing something, perhaps an additional switch with the new VM, or if logs are required?

Thanks

Tim

If you're on iOS 8, you need to use the ios.locationUsageDescription build hint for location services to work.

Hi,
check out the second paragraph here:

We should probably find a way to refine this a bit.

Thanks I'll check it out.
