在Phonegap（Cordova 2.9.0）iOS上进行地理位置定位

Question

I'm using Cordova 2.9.0 and Xcode 5.0

I'm trying to do this tutorial: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.4.0/cordova_geolocation_geolocation.md.html

I copied the code from the geolocation.getCurrentPosition and there the "Full Example" (with html and javascript-code)

I checked my config.xml and it has

<feature name="Geolocation">
  <param name="ios-package" value="CDVLocation"/>
</feature>

All I'm getting in the iPhone-Simulator is: "Finding geolocation..." But I waited for like 5mins and nothing happened - not getting any geolocation-data.

I hope someone could help me

You can try a few things, or post more details if these fail to resolve it:

• Your link points to the Cordova docs for version 2.4 and you are using 2.9, so although the spec for geolocation has not changed much, better to use the docs for that version.

• Check that you are including the cordova.js file. In the example in the docs the js file is named "cordova-xxxjs", you of course need to substitute that for the correct file name for your project/version.

• On the iPhone emulator (not the best way to check geolocation really) check that you have a mock location setup: Go to Debug > Location and select a predefined location or a custom one.

• Add console.log() calls or alert() to check whether the listener is being executed at all and to check for the presence of the plugin, like:

  function onDeviceReady() {
  alert("on device ready listener executed");
  alert(navigator.geolocation);
  navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(onSuccess, onError);
  }
