GPS interface code samples

MikeSweeney — Tue, 12 Jul 2011 19:20:09 GMT

Can anyone point me to a code sample that connects to a NMEA GPS device and reads the strings?

I know I will need to use:

iGPSConnection
iGPSFeed
IGPSDisplayProperties

Thanks!

Mike

You see I'm a novice programmer,I downloaded the x86 zip found some folders inside with xml documents ,program debug database, application extension....
Now it would be so kind of you if you could explain me what I do with these file , how to use this for my application I'm creating I want to make it simple; look for gps hardware , if found display the current position......no fiddling with options or anything ....

Thank You
