<p><strong>Description:</strong></p>
<p>The <code>GetLocation</code> method retrieves the current location
of the device.</p>
<p>This method can be called both synchronously and asynchronously.</p>
<p><strong>Syntax:</strong></p>
<p>For synchronous calls:</p>
<pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-7CD9AD3A-D065-4F76-A3FF-D524249CBF65-GENIDd0e47808">result = so.ILocation.GetLocation(criteria);</pre>
<p>For asynchronous calls:</p>
<pre class="codeblock" id="GUID-F1140A2E-9B60-4953-8C6E-1A6C47461241-GENIDd0e47814">result = so.ILocation.GetLocation(criteria, callback);</pre>
<p><strong>Arguments:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><p><code>criteria</code>:</p>
<p>This is an object that specifies what type of device location information
is returned and how. For more information about the object properties and
how to define them, see section <a href="GUID-4541E532-CC1A-4115-8467-7FA1C4378307.html#GUID-4541E532-CC1A-4115-8467-7FA1C4378307">Criteria for retrieving location information</a>.</p>
</li>
<li><p><code>callback</code>:</p>
<p>The <code>callback</code> argument is the name of the method
that is executed when an asynchronous <code>GetLocation</code> call
has results or status information to return. You must define this method separately.
Follow the instructions in section <a href="GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608.html#GUID-C7C3B541-8D28-4DC6-9003-ECF57F26C608">Defining the callback handler for an asynchronous method</a> to
define the <code>callback</code> method.</p>
<p>This argument is used only with an asynchronous <code>GetLocation</code> call.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Return value:</strong></p>
<p>If synchronous, the <code>GetLocation</code> method returns
an object that contains the requested location information, an error code,
and an error message.</p>

<p><strong>Remarks:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><p>The availability of specific location information depends
on the underlying GPS technology. Other factors, such as the number of satellites
available for a location fix, also affect what information can be returned.
You can change the positioning system used by an S60 device from the <strong>Settings
> General > Positioning > Positioning methods</strong> menu.</p></li>
<li><p>It takes time to retrieve the initial position fix. Subsequent
requests are faster.</p></li>
