MKMapView Delegate Methods not working


I just wanted to add a Polyline to my Map which is displayed in a tableviewcell. Unfortunately the delegate methods are not called... Would be nice if someone knows why.

My tableview.h:

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "Route.h"
#import <MapKit/MapKit.h>
#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>

@interface RoutesDetailView : UITableViewController<MKMapViewDelegate>{
    Route *myRoute;
    MKMapView *mapView;
    // the view we create for the line on the map
    MKPolylineView* _routeLineView;

    // the rect that bounds the loaded points
    MKMapRect _routeRect;
    MKPolyline* _routeLine;
}

@property (nonatomic, retain) Route *myRoute;
@property (nonatomic,retain) MKMapView *mapView;
@property (nonatomic, retain) MKPolyline* routeLine;
@property (nonatomic, retain) MKPolylineView* routeLineView;

-(MKPolyline *) loadRoute: (Route *) theRoute;
@end

And my tableview.m:

    @implementation RoutesDetailView
    @synthesize myRoute,mapView;
    @synthesize routeLine = _routeLine;
    @synthesize routeLineView = _routeLineView;

    - (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style
    {
        self = [super initWithStyle:style];
        if (self) {
            // Custom initialization
        }
        return self;
    }

    - (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning
    {
        // Releases the view if it doesn't have a superview.
        [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];

        // Release any cached data, images, etc that aren't in use.
    }

        myMap.layer.cornerRadius = 10.0;
        [self setMapView:myMap];
        [mapView setDelegate:self];
        CLLocationCoordinate2D annotationCoord;
        annotationCoord.latitude = [[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",NSLocalizedString(@"DefaultPointLAT", nil)] doubleValue];
        annotationCoord.longitude = [[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",NSLocalizedString(@"DefaultPointLONG", nil)] doubleValue];
        MKPointAnnotation *annotationPoint = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc] init];
        annotationPoint.coordinate = annotationCoord;
        MKCoordinateRegion region =
        MKCoordinateRegionMakeWithDistance (annotationPoint.coordinate,[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",NSLocalizedString(@"DefaultCircle", nil)] doubleValue], [[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",NSLocalizedString(@"DefaultCircle", nil)] doubleValue]);
        [mapView setRegion:region animated:NO];
        // Uncomment the following line to preserve selection between presentations.
        // self.clearsSelectionOnViewWillAppear = NO;

        // Uncomment the following line to display an Edit button in the navigation bar for this view controller.
        // self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = self.editButtonItem;
    }

    - (void)viewDidUnload
    {

Solution

  • Try this, I was having the same issue. After trying many combinations this is the one which works.

    #import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
    #import <MapKit/MapKit.h>
    
    @interface MapViewController : UIViewController<MKMapViewDelegate> {
    
        MKMapView   *mapView;
    }
    

    and the implementation...

    - (void)viewDidLoad {
    
        [super viewDidLoad];
    
        mapView = [[MKMapView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMakeFullScreenIphone];
        mapView.delegate = self;
        [mapView setMapType: MKMapTypeStandard];
        [self.view addSubview: mapView]; 
    
    
        MKCoordinateRegion newRegion;
        // configure region...
        [mapView setRegion:newRegion animated:YES];
    
        CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate;
        //configure coordinate...
    
        MKPointAnnotation *annotation = [[MKPointAnnotation alloc]init];
        [annotation setCoordinate:coordinate];
        [annotation setTitle:@"TEST"];
        [mapView addAnnotation:annotation];
    }
    

    The simple code above works fine and delegate's methods were called.
