Application Code Snippet

The application gets the location manager object using an Android existing API:

LocationManager manager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE)

Obtain the LocationManager object in order to use the API's listed below.

To request location updates using the Zebra Locationing service as a provider:

manager.requestLocationUpdates("rtt", 5000, 1, listener);

By default, Android provides two providers: GPS and network providers. Zebra provides a specific FTM provider called ”rtt” provider, which can be accessed through the APIs of the Location Manager services. Android provides an API to query the list of supported providers. Application developers can use the API to retrieve the list of providers supported by the product. [getAllProviders]

Here, the listener is Android's existing listener called LocationListener to get the location updates.

LocationListener listener = new LocationListener()

{

@Override

public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {location.getLongitude();location.getLatitude(); }

}

To stop the location updates using blow API

manager.removeUpdates(listener);

To get the last known location, one should use the Android API below:

Location loc = manager.getLastKnownLocation("rtt")
