Creating GPS App : GPS Location Provider

friend in accessing location provider there is two location provider :

• GPS Provider
• Network Provider

now we will talk about GPS Provider. before we begin we had to implement the permission in "AndroidManifest.xml" file.

and back to GPS Provider.
 we have to create LocationManager and LocationListener and don't forget to check the permission.

LocationManager:

LocationManager locationManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

LocationListener:

LocationListener locationListener = new MyGPS(); 

MyGPS class is my personal class that implements Location Listener then in that class I overide methods..

@Overridepublic void onLocationChanged(Location loc) {
    String longitude = "Longitude: " + loc.getLongitude();
    String latitude = "Latitude: " + loc.getLatitude();
   }

Check the permission:

int permissionCheck = ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(MapsActivity.this, 

Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION);

and set Location Request Updates:

locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 500, 1, locationListener);

500 is long type value of minimum time to update. and
1 is float type value of minimum distance to update.


and to get the location we can access it by:

Location locationGPS = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);

then we can access the Network Location Provider  Latitude and Longitude with

locationGPS.getLatitude(); 

and

locationGPS.getLongitude();

with double value type as return.

okay done for Location Provider with GPS Provider

have a very nice try friend. ^__^.
