How to handle "Don't Allow" for location manager?

harshalb picture harshalb · Feb 25, 2010 · Viewed 13.4k times · Source

I haven't think of this yet now .

Till now whenever device was asking me use location update I was allowing it .

But when now I am not allowing then it the location manager gives me kclErrorDenied and the location manager can not start again until I restart the application .

So my question is that should I give a message to restart the app to the user or is there a solution to start working the location manager again .

thanks .

The Error :
ERROR,Time,288787555.078,Function,"void CLClientHandleDaemonDataRegistration(__CLClient*, const CLDaemonCommToClientRegistration*, const __CFDictionary*)",server did not accept client registration 1
WARNING,Time,288787555.108,Function,"void CLClientHandleDaemonInvalidation(__CFMessagePort*, void*)",client 1308.0 has been disconnected from daemon
 locationManager:didFailWithError:] [Line 244] Error Denied :Error Domain=kCLErrorDomain Code=1 "Operation could not be completed. (kCLErrorDomain error 1.)"

Implement - (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didFailWithError:(NSError *)error.

- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didFailWithError:(NSError *)error {
    NSMutableString *errorString = [[[NSMutableString alloc] init] autorelease];

    if ([error domain] == kCLErrorDomain) {

        // We handle CoreLocation-related errors here
    switch ([error code]) {
        // "Don't Allow" on two successive app launches is the same as saying "never allow". The user
        // can reset this for all apps by going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Location Warnings.
        case kCLErrorDenied:
            //...
            break;
        case kCLErrorLocationUnknown:
            //...
            break;
        default:
            //...
            break;
        }
    } else {
        // We handle all non-CoreLocation errors here
    }
}
