Hi frinds......
I am presently working on GPS.I have to start GPS periodically.I mean
I want GPS to start after a particular intervel,get Location value and
then stop taking location updates.For this,I m calling
requestLocationUpdates( , , ) method in a timer.Then in
onLocationChanged(), I stop taking location by using removeUpdates
().Then after particular intervel ,it again start taking values,then
when location changes ,it stops, and so on......
Here is my code:
TimerTask IntervelTimer = new TimerTask()
{
public void run()
{
Log.d
("startLocationUpdate","startLocationUpdate");
startLocationUpdate();
}
};
Timer timer2 = new Timer();
try{
timer2.schedule(IntervelTimer, 1*60 * 1000, 1*60 * 1000);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Log.e("Error",e.toString());
}
public void startLocationUpdate()
{
System.out.println("startLocationUpdate()");
if(locationListener==null)
{
Looper.prepare();
locationListener = new MyLocationListener();
try{
lm.requestLocationUpdates(
LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,
0,
0,
locationListener);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Log.e("error",e.toString());
}
Looper.loop();
Looper.myLooper().quit();
}
}
private class MyLocationListener implements LocationListener
{
public void onLocationChanged(Location loc) {
System.out.println("GetLocation");
if (loc != null) {
StoreGPSlocation(String.valueOf
(loc.getLatitude()),String.valueOf(loc.getLongitude()));
stopLocationUpdate();
}
}
public void onProviderDisabled(String provider) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
public void onProviderEnabled(String provider) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
public void onStatusChanged(String provider, int status,
Bundle extras) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
public void stopLocationUpdate()
{
LocationManager lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService
(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
if (lm != null)
{
if (locationListener != null)
{
lm.removeUpdates(locationListener);
locationListener= null;
}
lm = null;
}
}
Now the problem is:It starts fine for the first time,when location
changes it stops then starts again,but the timer stops running after
that.I dont get any error or exception.I dont know where is the
problem.As far as I am concirned,the problem is in timer......
What do you guys think.......????
I need Help..... urgently!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in Advance
