Could an application be created to:
1. Take a location fix from GPS & store it
2. Alternatively, allow copy/paste or manual entry of a GPS location
3. Display a directional pointer on the screen, showing the direction of the location & its distance from the present location
without having to establish a data connection?
It's called:
qdialgps
0.0.1 isn't intended to work at all, it is designed to show the interface.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Error from MADDE:
libQtDeclarative.so: undefined reference to `QScriptDeclarativeClass
I'm trying to use MADDE with PR1.2 fremantle target for building Qt 4.7 program using QML.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Extras assistant:
Build failed:
error: QApplication: No such file or directory
What does it mean? It says it installed libqt4-dev as build dependency, how can it have no QApplication in its default include directory?
Just brilliant. Sending the same files to builder again.
Failed again.
https://garage.maemo.org/builder/fre...log.FAILED.txt
Attaching tar.gz to this post.
Can somebody tell me what's the problem? I have never used QML before, but I have compiled a Qt application in this MADDE after PR1.3 without any problems.

I believe Mappero does work offline. Also you might wanna take a look at Advanced Geocaching Tool as well as GPXView

GPS view - shows the distance and direction to the selected geocache.
Mappero and Modrana can show maps offline instead of downloading them online (or you can turn off the maps and see blank background with GPS marker on it). But I don't remember any of them showing direction to a selected point.

Quick reply...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For now, continuing with simple coding example.
Installed Nokia Qt SDK in order to get MADDE with Qt 4.7 and PR1.3.
Compiled qdialgps version 0.0.1.
Interface works, thanks to QML.
But, signal emitted by QML seems to be not heard by C++ program.

But it's not adapted to quickly establishing present location for saving, &/or saving one or more "targets" for future location, like where you left your car, bike, boat, or the blue easter egg.

* Raster Map support ( Geotiff lonlat)
* OpenStreetMap.org
* Tracks
* Waypoints
Will add also position Search and Route mode from openrouteservices website.
Fabrice
Btw : Distance is shown from your current position to the position you point with finger on map and also Heading

It's updates itself with timer.
As the changes are most likely negligible, you will hardly be able to check it by eyes.
If you start from X Terminal (/opt/usr/bin/qdialgps), you can see its output.
It says:
No such signal QGeoPositionInfoSourceMaemo...
So it's hardly possible to update upon position change; timer is most likely the way to go, though it's most likely resource eater.
There is also now distance in meters.

Takes coordinate at launch and then always shows direction and distance to it, updating continuously.
EDIT: it doesn't start GPS chip by itself. If you have OSMapper, Modrana, Mappero running in the background - great, they have already turned GPS on. Otherwise, the coordinate will always remain the same.
I will need to find out how to request turning the GPS on in Qt, without low-level Hildon-specific tricks.
