I have a MKMap
with a series of MKAnnotations
, all of which are red which is fine. I have selected "show user location" in IB and to change the MKAnnotation
from red to blue, I have the code in my viewForAnnotation
method:
if (annotation == theMap.userLocation)
return nil;
All is good and the app works fine, but if the user inadvertently taps the blue userlocation dot I get the following crash:
2012-02-01 20:43:47.527 AusReefNSW[27178:11603] -[MKUserLocationView setPinColor:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x79b0720
2012-02-01 20:43:47.528 AusReefNSW[27178:11603] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '-[MKUserLocationView setPinColor:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x79b0720'
*** First throw call stack:
If I remove the above code, all works well but the pin is red. I perfer to have the blue icon but as yet have not discovered why the crash. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
SOLVED! Thanks Marvin and heres the code incase anyone finds it useful. In a nutshell, I had to first check to see if the MKAnnotation was of MyAnnotation Class or of MKUserLocation Class.
- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView didSelectAnnotationView:(MKPinAnnotationView *)view
{
theAnnotationSelected = [[mapView selectedAnnotations] objectAtIndex:0];
if ([theAnnotationSelected isKindOfClass:[MyAnnotation class]] )
{
view.pinColor = MKPinAnnotationColorGreen;
}
- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView didDeselectAnnotationView:(MKPinAnnotationView *)view
{
if ([theAnnotationSelected isKindOfClass:[MyAnnotation class]] )
{
view.pinColor = MKPinAnnotationColorRed;
}
For Current User Location go to MKMapView
property and make selection on Shows User Location in XIB.
then Implement MKMapViewDelegate in your controller..and write this method in your controller
-(MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)pmapView viewForAnnotation:(id <MKAnnotation>)annotation
{
if ([annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]])
return nil; //return nil to use default blue dot view
if([annotation isKindOfClass:[MKAnnotationClass class]])
{
//Your code
}
}
and this
- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView1 didSelectAnnotationView:(MKAnnotationView *)customAnnotationView
{
if(![annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]])
{
//Your code
}
}
Using this you can see blue dot on User Location..
