Hello,

It's possible to get GPS coordinates with Monkey?

Regards,

Yes, within Diddy we have the native code:

	static void startGps()
	{
		try {
			myManager = (LocationManager)BBAndroidGame._androidGame._activity.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

			final LocationListener locationListener = new LocationListener() {

				public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
					latitude = String.format("%.6f", location.getLatitude());
					longitude = String.format("%.6f", location.getLongitude());
				}
				public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status, Bundle extras) {}
				public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {}
				public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {}
			};

			BBAndroidGame._androidGame._activity.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
				public void run() {
					try {
						if (!gpsStarted) {
							myManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, locationListener); 
							gpsStarted = true;
						}
					}catch (java.lang.SecurityException e) {
						android.util.Log.e("[Monkey]", "SecurityException: " + android.util.Log.getStackTraceString(e));
					}
				}
			});
		} catch (java.lang.SecurityException e) {
			android.util.Log.e("[Monkey]", "SecurityException: " + android.util.Log.getStackTraceString(e));
		}
	}
	static String getLatitiude() {
		return latitude;
	}
	static String getLongitude() {
		return longitude;
	}

@therevills, I'm trying to invoke the startGps function, but failing at the mo, any steers you have would be appreciated.

[EDIT] I've found testApp.Monkey, compiling to my phone now ....

Impressed with the functionality within your framework, I need to do a little investigation on how to (potentially) extract the lats and londs from my Sony Experia though. Despite iRunner accessnig (however) my Android phone makes GPS available, the Lats and Longs are blank at the moment on my phone.

Then again, it could be the fact I'd to put the diddy modules within a 79e directory, that for some reason, Monkey keeps referring to. The second argument within the compiler output does seem to refer to the 86e directory that I am compiling the code from however....
