在iOS中更新后台位置

Question

I am working on walking track type app but facing problem that how location would upadte when app is in background . I am drawing a path on map as location update and a timer also . Then please suggest me how i handle it. here is my code

- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager
    didUpdateToLocation:(CLLocation *)newLocation
           fromLocation:(CLLocation *)oldLocation
{  
    if(!newLocation) return;

    if ((oldLocation.coordinate.latitude != newLocation.coordinate.latitude) &&
        (oldLocation.coordinate.longitude != newLocation.coordinate.longitude))
    {        
      // to  draw path as new location find
        jogPoint = [[JogPoint alloc] initWithCenterCoordinate:newLocation.coordinate];

        [jogPoints addObject:jogPoint];


         if([jogPoints count] >= 5) {

            [self.mapView addOverlay:jogPoint];

            CLLocation *loc1 = [[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:oldLocation.coordinate.latitude longitude:oldLocation.coordinate.longitude];


            CLLocation *loc2 = [[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:newLocation.coordinate.latitude longitude:newLocation.coordinate.longitude];
            // returns distance in meters
          distnc+=[loc1 distanceFromLocation:loc2] ;
            distanceLabel.text=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%lf",distnc];

       //  jogInfo.distance += ([loc1 distanceFromLocation:loc2]) * 0.000621371192;

           // jogInfo.eclapsedTime = (CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent() - startTime) * 1000 * 60;



        }
    }
 }

If your Application is in background mode also location is tracking/update as like if your app. active so don't worry about it :)

Just Make sure your create CLLocationManager such like

self.currentLocation = [[CLLocationManager alloc]init];
self.currentLocation.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters;
self.currentLocation.delegate = self;
[self.currentLocation startUpdatingLocation];

EDITED :

If here set distanceFilter then your method call at specific meter which value set in distanceFilter otherwise it update whenever your device is move

And This is very important to set/add Require background mode in YourProjectName-Info.plist file Value is App Registers for location update

You can use the significant-change location service to receive location events.

This service offers a significant power savings and provides accuracy that is good enough for most apps. It uses the device's cellular radio to determine the user's location and report changes in that location, allowing the system to manage power usage much more aggressively than it could otherwise. This service is also capable of waking up an app that is currently suspended or not running in order to deliver new location data.

To use the significant-change location service:

Create an instance of the CLLocationManager class, assign a delegate to it, and call the startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges method . As location data becomes available, the location manager notifies its assigned delegate object. If a location update has already been delivered, you can also get the most recent location data directly from the CLLocationManager object without waiting for a new event to be delivered.
