未获得位置iOS8的授权

Question

I've tried looking at other solutions such as: requestWhenInUseAuthorization() not Work in iOS 8 With NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription Key in Info.plist

But I can't get authorization prompt to get location.

That person's issue in that other question was that he had is manager inside his viewDidLoad , I do not, but still an authorization prompt is not showing up. I've updated my plist:

and have my manager outside of my viewDidLoad :

import UIKit
import AVFoundation
import MapKit

class SecondViewController: UIViewController, CLLocationManagerDelegate {

let locationManager: CLLocationManager = CLLocationManager()


var player = AVPlayer()
override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    self.locationManager.delegate = self
    self.locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest
    self.locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization()
    self.locationManager.startUpdatingLocation()
    println("Got to end of locationmanager")
    //playentryaudio() // User plugged in mic -- start playing entry audio.
}

func locationManager(manager: CLLocationManager!, didUpdateLocations locations: [AnyObject]!) {
    println("Got to locationmngsr")
    var userlocation = locations[0] as! CLLocation

    var latitude: CLLocationDegrees = userlocation.coordinate.latitude

    var longitude: CLLocationDegrees = userlocation.coordinate.longitude

    println(latitude)
    println(longitude)
} //snip rest of code

Since It's not getting auth, It's never hitting the locationManager function.

Answer 1

The prompt only shows if CLLocationManager.authorizationStatus() == .NotDetermined . If the user previously denied access, you won't see the prompt anymore. You should check the status before self.locationManager.requestWhenInUseAuthorization() . If it shows anything but .NotDetermined , look at the location settings for the app and the device.

If the status is .NotDetermined and the prompt still does not show, I would double check spelling of the NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription .
