Question

I am trying to find current location, and this is my code.

 LocationManager mlocManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);        
        Location location =new Location(mlocManager.GPS_PROVIDER);      

 System.out.println("***longitude **"+location.getLongitude());
        System.out.println("***latitude **"+location.getLatitude());

but when i run app it always display 0.0
can anyone see the problem?

Answer 1

Location location =new Location(mlocManager.GPS_PROVIDER); 

after writing this statement if you put your cursor over Location You will come to know extact meaning of this statement.

As per Google Doc

above Constructs a new Location. By default, time, latitude,
longitude, and numSatellites are 0; hasAltitude, hasSpeed, and
hasBearing are false; and there is no extra information.

You need to fire requestLocationUpdate to get Lat & lon(If any).

Also since you are running this example on Emulator.You will need to emulate send Lat & Lon
manually.
