emulator and geolocation

Hi!

I have wrote a web application with geolocation using and it works well on web simulator and in chrome and firefox, but it does not work on emulator tizen 2.2. When I try to obtain geolocation I always get 'Permission denied'. Emulator every time asks me for accessing rights and I always press 'Yes, allow', but it does not help. Should my app have some additional rights for geolocation using?

Hi Alexander Since there is no GPS in emulator you cannot find your location. If you want to use geolocation in emulator you can do it using Event Injector. Please refer the below link for Event Injector https://developer.tizen.org/help/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.tizen.gettingstarted%2Fhtml%2Fdev_env%2Fproviding_location_data.htm

Thank you for answer. Unfortunately it does not help. I send my location via event injector, but my application still getting 'permisison denied' error code.

Add * in access of config.xml file and also add privilige http://tizen.org/privilege/location

Here is what I used in my config.xml that worked for me on Tizen 2.2:

<tizen:privilege name="http://tizen.org/privilege/location"/>
<access origin="*" subdomains="true"/>

However, the reference device I am using is hard coded to Niederkassel at location:

  • Latitude:  51.24363131666667
  • Longitude: 6.741913666666666

Hi Larry,

I am new on Tizen. I tried to get latitude and longitude but not getting. 

Please share code with me.

Thanks in advance.

Please post your code here so we can all review it and then maybe we can point out some helpful changes.
