Criterion for searching for landmarks which reside in a certain area.

The search area is defined by providing two latitude and two longitude values which specify the borders of the area. Note that this search does not consider landmark coverage radius, see CPosLandmark::GetCoverageRadius .

The search area is defined as a spherical rectangle, limited by two longitude borders (WestLongitude and EastLongitude) and two latitude borders (SouthLatitude and NorthLatitude).

It is required that -90 =< SouthLatitude =< NorthLatitude =< 90. WestLongitude must be in the interval [-180, 180), i.e. not including +180. EastLongitude must be in the interval [-180, 180], i.e. including +180. It is allowed that EastLongitude < WestLongitude. This defines an area which crosses the 180 meridian. The area definition is inclusive, i.e. landmarks which lie on the border of the area will be considered as matches. If WestLongitude = EastLongitude and NorthLatitude = SouthLatitude then only landmarks which match the longitude and latitude respectively, are considered to be matches. If WestLongitude = -180 and EastLongitude = +180, all longitudes are included in the search.

This criterion is only valid when searching for landmarks, i.e. if it is passed to CPosLandmarkSearch::StartCategorySearchL , the function will fail with error code KErrArgument .
