Class GeolocationPosition

java.lang.Object
com.oorian.html.js.geolocation.GeolocationPosition
public class GeolocationPosition extends Object
Represents a geographic position from the Geolocation API.

This class mirrors the browser's GeolocationPosition interface, containing the coordinates and the timestamp when the position was acquired.

Usage:


 public void onEvent(GeolocationEvent event) {
     GeolocationPosition position = event.getPosition();
     GeolocationCoordinates coords = position.getCoords();
     long timestamp = position.getTimestamp();

     System.out.println("Position acquired at: " + new Date(timestamp));
     System.out.println("Latitude: " + coords.getLatitude());
     System.out.println("Longitude: " + coords.getLongitude());
 }
