    \class QGeoPositionInfoSource
    \brief The QGeoPositionInfoSource class is an abstract base class for the distribution of positional updates.
    \ingroup location

    The static function QGeoPositionInfoSource::createDefaultSource() creates a default
    position source that is appropriate for the platform, if one is available.
    Otherwise, QGeoPositionInfoSource can be subclassed to create an appropriate
    custom source of position data.

    Users of a QGeoPositionInfoSource subclass can request the current position using
    requestUpdate(), or start and stop regular position updates using
    startUpdates() and stopUpdates(). When an update is available,
    positionUpdated() is emitted. The last known position can be accessed with
    lastKnownPosition().

    If regular position updates are required, setUpdateInterval() can be used
    to specify how often these updates should be emitted. If no interval is
    specified, updates are simply provided whenever they are available.
    For example:

    \code
        // Emit updates every 10 seconds if available
        QGeoPositionInfoSource *source = QGeoPositionInfoSource::createDefaultSource();
        if (source)
            source->setUpdateInterval(10000);
    \endcode

    To remove an update interval that was previously set, call
    setUpdateInterval() with a value of 0.

    Note that the position source may have a minimum value requirement for
    update intervals, as returned by minimumUpdateInterval().

    \warning On Windows CE it is not possible to detect if a device is GPS enabled.
    The default position source on a Windows CE device without GPS support will never provide any position data.
*/

/*!
    \enum QGeoPositionInfoSource::PositioningMethod
    Defines the types of positioning methods.

    \value SatellitePositioningMethods Satellite-based positioning methods such as GPS.
    \value NonSatellitePositioningMethods Other positioning methods.
    \value AllPositioningMethods A flag that matches all positioning methods.

    \property QGeoPositionInfoSource::updateInterval
    \brief This property holds the requested interval in milliseconds between each update.

    If the update interval is not set (or is set to 0) the
    source will provide updates as often as necessary.

    If the update interval is set, the source will provide updates at an
    interval as close to the requested interval as possible. If the requested
    interval is less than the minimumUpdateInterval(),
    the minimum interval is used instead.

    Changes to the update interval will happen as soon as is practical, however the 
    time the change takes may vary between implementations.  Whether or not the elapsed 
    time from the previous interval is counted as part of the new interval is also 
    implementation dependent.

    The default value for this property is 0.

    Note: Subclass implementations must call the base implementation of
    setUpdateInterval() so that updateInterval() returns the correct value.

    Starts emitting updates at regular intervals as specified by setUpdateInterval().

    If setUpdateInterval() has not been called, the source will emit updates
    as soon as they become available.

    An updateTimout() signal will be emitted if this QGeoPositionInfoSource subclass determines
    that it will not be able to provide regular updates.  This could happen if a satellite fix is
    lost or if a hardware error is detected.  Position updates will recommence if the data becomes
    available later on.  The updateTimout() signal will not be emitted again until after the

*/

/*!
    \fn virtual void QGeoPositionInfoSource::requestUpdate(int timeout = 0);

    Attempts to get the current position and emit positionUpdated() with
    this information. If the current position cannot be found within the given \a timeout
    (in milliseconds) or if \a timeout is less than the value returned by
    minimumUpdateInterval(), updateTimeout() is emitted.

    If the timeout is zero, the timeout defaults to a reasonable timeout
    period as appropriate for the source.

    This does nothing if another update request is in progress. However
    it can be called even if startUpdates() has already been called and
    regular updates are in progress.

    If the source uses multiple positioning methods, it tries to gets the
    current position from the most accurate positioning method within the
    given timeout.

/*!
    \fn void QGeoPositionInfoSource::positionUpdated(const QGeoPositionInfo &update);

    If startUpdates() or requestUpdate() is called, this signal is emitted

*/

/*!
    \fn void QGeoPositionInfoSource::updateTimeout();

    If requestUpdate() was called, this signal will be emitted if the current position could not
    be retrieved within the specified timeout.

    If startUpdates() has been called, this signal will be emitted if this QGeoPositionInfoSource
    subclass determines that it will not be able to provide further regular updates.  This signal
    will not be emitted again until after the regular updates resume.
