Object Model

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public sealed class DeviceLocationService : IDeviceLocationService

Public NotInheritable Class DeviceLocationService 
   Implements IDeviceLocationService

Remarks

There can only be one device location source open at any one time.

You cannot create a DeviceLocationService instance. Instead use the Instance property to access the singleton DeviceLocationService instance which will have been already created.

Subscribe to ArcGIS.Desktop.Core.DeviceLocation.Events.SnapshotChangedEvent event to receive coordinates and metadata from the open device location source Snapshot.

To interact with the current or active map view using the device location, use the ArcGIS.Desktop.Mapping.DeviceLocation.MapDeviceLocationService instance.

Subscribe to the ArcGIS.Desktop.Core.DeviceLocation.Events.DeviceLocationSourceChangedEvent to receive notifications when the current device location source is changed.

Example

var sp = new SerialPortDeviceLocationSource()
{
  ComPort = "COM4",
};
            
await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
{
  DeviceLocationService.Instance.Open(sp);
});
