Question

In my application i have used the MKmapview,I want to hide the user current location annotation point,Here my code
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
appDel=(AppDelegate *)[UIApplication sharedApplication].delegate;
DatabaseController *dbObj=[[DatabaseController alloc] init];
NSString *query=[NSString stringWithFormat:#"select * from petBoundarySettings where petId=%#",self.petID];
NSMutableArray *alertSettingArray=[dbObj getPetAlertSerrings:query :[appDel getDBPath]];
if([alertSettingArray count]>0){
distance=[[[alertSettingArray objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:#"distance"] integerValue];
address=[[alertSettingArray objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:#"address"];
lat2=[[alertSettingArray objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:#"lat"] ;
lon2=[[alertSettingArray objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:#"lang"] ;
}
UIImageView *imageNav = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage: [UIImage imageNamed: #"sml-cat_03.png"]];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:imageNav];
[imageNav release];
[dbObj release];
MKCoordinateSpan span;
span.latitudeDelta=.01;
span.longitudeDelta=.01;
MKCoordinateRegion region;
//distance=appDel.alertDistance;
locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
locationManager.delegate = nil;
locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest;
locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone;
[locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
currentAnnotation=[[MyAnnotations alloc]init];
NSLog(#"GL%f",appDel.getlat);
NSLog(#"GN%f",appDel.getlon);
regionCoordinate.latitude =[lat2 floatValue];
regionCoordinate.longitude = [lon2 floatValue];
currentAnnotation.coordinate=regionCoordinate;
currentAnnotation.title=#"Boundary Location";
currentAnnotation.subtitle=appDel.address;
region.center=CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(regionCoordinate.latitude,regionCoordinate.longitude);
region.span=span;
[_myMapView setRegion:region animated:YES];
[_myMapView regionThatFits:region];
region1=region;
petAnnotation=[[MyAnnotations alloc]init];
petCoordinate.latitude = +11.028549739;
petCoordinate.longitude = +76.89644586;
petAnnotation.coordinate=petCoordinate;
petAnnotation.title=#"My Pet Location";
petAnnotation.subtitle=#"Vadavalli";
MKCircle *circle = [MKCircle circleWithCenterCoordinate:regionCoordinate radius:distance];
[_myMapView addOverlay:circle];
CLLocation *whereIAm = [locationManager location];
NSLog(#"MI%#",whereIAm);
[_myMapView addAnnotation:currentAnnotation];
MKMapPoint p1 = MKMapPointForCoordinate(regionCoordinate);
MKMapPoint p2 = MKMapPointForCoordinate(petCoordinate);
CLLocationDistance dist = MKMetersBetweenMapPoints(p1, p2);
i=0;
[self getPetData];
timer= [NSTimer scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:60 target:self selector:#selector(getPetData) userInfo:nil repeats:YES];
if(appDel.checkGPS==NO)
{
[self getPetDataFromGPS];
}
}
How to hide the current location from mkmapview,Please help me to sort out.

MKMapView has a property named showsUserLocation that you can set to determine whether the user's location can be displayed. However, I see that you're not setting it in code, and the default value is NO.
If you're using a Xib or Storyboard, check the MKMapView in there, as there is a checkbox for this behaviour in the attributes inspector. (Shows User Location)
