- (void)viewDidLoad{
[super viewDidLoad];
self.title = #"MapView";
self.navigationController.navigationBarHidden = NO;
locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
locationManager.delegate = self;
locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone; // whenever we move
locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters; // 100 m
[locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
}
- (void) loadPin {
iCodeBlogAnnotation *appleStore1;
CLLocationCoordinate2D workingCoordinate;
workingCoordinate.latitude = [latitude doubleValue];
workingCoordinate.longitude = [longitude doubleValue];
appleStore1 = [[iCodeBlogAnnotation alloc] initWithCoordinate:workingCoordinate];
[appleStore1 setTitle:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"Default Point"]];
//[appleStore1 setSubtitle:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"Distance %.2f Miles",miles]];
[appleStore1 setAnnotationType:iCodeBlogAnnotationTypeEDU];
[mapView addAnnotation:appleStore1];
[(MKMapView*)self.mapView selectAnnotation:appleStore1 animated:NO];
MKCoordinateRegion region;
region.center.latitude = [latitude doubleValue];
region.center.longitude = [longitude doubleValue];
region.span.latitudeDelta = .5;
region.span.longitudeDelta = .5;
[mapView setRegion:region animated:YES];
}
- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateToLocation:(CLLocation *)newLocation fromLocation:(CLLocation *)oldLocation {
latitude = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%f", newLocation.coordinate.latitude];
longitude = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"%f", newLocation.coordinate.longitude];
[locationManager stopUpdatingLocation];
if (latitude > 0) {
[self loadPin];
}
