[maemo-developers] Urgent N800 with GPS

[From: Doug Turner]

Something like this should work:


#include <glib.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <gpsbt.h>
#include <gpsmgr.h>

extern "C" {
   // need to extern these because of:
   // https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3226
   #include <location/location-gps-device.h>
   #include <location/location-gpsd-control.h>
}

void location_changed (LocationGPSDevice *device, gpointer userdata)
{
}

gpsbt_t GPSBT;

memset(&GPSBT, 0, sizeof(gpsbt_t));
int result = gpsbt_start(NULL, 0, 0, 0, NULL, 0, 0, &GPSBT);
if (result <0) return some_reasonable_error

LocationGPSDevice * device = (LocationGPSDevice*) g_object_new  
(LOCATION_TYPE_GPS_DEVICE, NULL);
gulong handle = g_signal_connect (device, "changed", G_CALLBACK  
(location_changed), user_data);
