Android Question location manager lm.stopListening

[hookshy]

Hi , Does every one has any experience using functions of location manager and could
guide me how to use loaction manager stop listening function .
When should we use it ? and what is the purpose?

I had problems , services crashed all the time when calling lm.stoplistening

Sub Service_Create
   lm.Initialize("location")
End Sub

sub Service_start

if condition then
lm.requestlocation
else
lm.stoplistening ' this seems to be improper use
end if

Thanks.

Hello Hookshy,

Refering to the help (LocationManager V1.10), shouldn't the request be : LM.requestMobileLocation or LM.requestGPSLocation ?

And to stop: LM.stopMobileListening and LM.stopGPSListening

 

[hookshy]

I am using LocationManager v1.00 ..perhaps the request you mentioned si for other library ...locationmanger Extended or gps

 

[lemonisdead]

No, I use the V1.10 (available from the same post)

I found that you must call lm.requestlocation first , otherwise you have no listener to stop it
