Location returns NULL

问题

I am writing an Android app that returns longitude and latitude, however location holds a Null value.

Please see if you can see why, Its been bugging me all day. Code below:

public class example extends Activity {

    public static double latitude;
    public static double longitude;
    LocationManager lm;
    LocationListener ll;
    Location location;


  /** Called when the activity is first created. */
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
      setContentView(R.layout.questions);


      lm = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);

      ll = new MyLocationListener();

      lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER, 0, 0, ll);
      //location = lm.getLastKnownLocation(lm.getBestProvider(criteria, true)); 

      Button b = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button2);
      b.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {
            String provider = Settings.Secure.getString(getContentResolver(), Settings.Secure.LOCATION_PROVIDERS_ALLOWED);
             int index1 = provider.indexOf("gps");
             if(index1 < 0)
                 // gps not enabled, call msgbox    
                 showMsgBox("GPS is off", "GPS is off. Turn it on?", "Turn on");
             else
            areWeThereYet(); }});
}

  private void areWeThereYet()
  {
      if(weAreThere())
      {
          toastMsg("in correct place");     
      }
      else if(location!=null)
          toastMsg("not there yet");
  }

private boolean weAreThere() {

     location = lm.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);

    if (location!=null)
    {
        longitude = location.getLongitude();
        latitude = location.getLatitude();
        toastMsg(latitude + " " + longitude);
        return inCorrectPlace(question);
    }
    else
    {
        toastMsg("Location not ready yet");
        return false;
    }
}

private void toastMsg(String msg) {
        Toast toast = Toast.makeText(this, msg, 2000);
        toast.setGravity(Gravity.BOTTOM, 0, 0);
            toast.show();
}
}

If the GPS has not ever gotten a location since the device was booted, the location object will be null. One thing you can do is attempt to get a GPS location and a network location, and check to two to see if either of them are good (or which one is better) and use that location.

If you're using the emulator, then see here for advice on setting up the emulator to provide a location. If you're testing it on your device, it may be because you've never had a gps location on it. Try using the Google maps application before testing your app.
