I am trying to learn how to generate a route between two locations, so I created a project with fake locations and stuff so that once I "get it" I can implement it in my real app.
I am trying to generate a route between "location" and "next", but am getting a bad error.
Here is the code:
import UIKit
import MapKit
import CoreLocation
class ViewController: UIViewController, MKMapViewDelegate, CLLocationManagerDelegate {
@IBOutlet var map: MKMapView!
var geocoder:CLGeocoder = CLGeocoder()
var location:CLLocation = CLLocation(latitude: 38, longitude: -77)
var next:CLLocation = CLLocation(latitude: 38.21, longitude: -77.21)
var locMark:MKPlacemark?
var destMark:MKPlacemark?
var manager:CLLocationManager = CLLocationManager()
var source:MKMapItem?
var destination:MKMapItem?
var request:MKDirectionsRequest = MKDirectionsRequest()
var directions:MKDirections = MKDirections()
var directionsResponse:MKDirectionsResponse = MKDirectionsResponse()
var route:MKRoute = MKRoute()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
manager.requestAlwaysAuthorization()
map.mapType = MKMapType.Satellite
locMark = MKPlacemark(coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(location.coordinate.latitude, location.coordinate.longitude), addressDictionary: nil)
destMark = MKPlacemark(coordinate: CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(next.coordinate.latitude, next.coordinate.longitude), addressDictionary: nil)
source = MKMapItem(placemark: locMark)
destination = MKMapItem(placemark: destMark)
request.setSource(source)
request.setDestination(destination)
request.transportType = MKDirectionsTransportType.Automobile
request.requestsAlternateRoutes = true
directions = MKDirections(request: request)
directions.calculateDirectionsWithCompletionHandler { (response:MKDirectionsResponse?, error:NSError?) -> Void in
if error == nil {
self.directionsResponse = response!
self.route = self.directionsResponse.routes[0] as! MKRoute
map.addOverlay(route.polyline, level: MKOverlayLevel.AboveRoads)
} else {
println(error)
}
}
}
The route is not showing up.
I'm thinking it's because latitudes range from -90 to 90, and 120 is out of range. Thus you're specifying invalid data.
The first number, latitude, ranges from -90 to +90. The second number ranges from -180 to +180.
