I learned today of an issue with Core Location in iOS 8: a new key or keys must be added to Info.plist to get Core Location to work. More information is available on these pages:

- iphone - iOS 8 : Location Services not working - Stack Overflow

- rdar://17465666: Apps built for iOS 7 don't ask for location permission

- fixes #481: update CL tracking API for iOS 8+ · 8d6b14a · mapbox/mapbox-ios-sdk · GitHub

I'll note that I have not tested this myself, nor thoroughly investigated the issue. This may be nothing, but I'm curious as to whether ArcGIS developers or users of the SDK have tested their apps with iOS 8.

We've been testing the Runtime SDK for iOS with iOS 8 Beta 5, and so far we've uncovered only a few issues mostly related to popup display on iPad in a form sheet or a page sheet presentation style. We've also run into the location display issues you report, caused by the new authorization model for using location in apps.

Hi Kristoffer,

is this a secured layer?

I'm trying to run some tests and I get an 400 error - bad request with the WMTS URL you provided.

Hi David Lednik‌. This should not be a secured layer; the following should work:

AGSWMTSLayer.wmtsLayerWithUrl(NSURL(string:"http://opencache.statkart.no/gatekeeper/gk/gk.open_wmts"), title: "topo2", imageFormat: AGSImageFormat.PNG24, tileMatrixSet: "EPSG:32633")

But, upgrading to 10.2.4, I believe the issues I saw no longer occur. If i do find any more though, I´d be happy to share my project. If you have a BitBucket account, I can share it if the issue reoccurs.

Thanks for looking into this!

Hi again, actually I was able to crash my simulator on 10.2.4 (in "AGSFileFormatForImageFormatWithJPEGEqualToJPG") just after my previous posting.

Hi Kristoffer,

I tried your layer in 10.2.4 and I didn't see any crashes.

I just modified the sample map demo that comes with SDK installation.

Added this code to add the layer:

AGSWMTSLayer *wmtsLayer = [AGSWMTSLayer wmtsLayerWithUrl:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://opencache.statkart.no/gatekeeper/gk/gk.open_wmts"] title:@"topo2" imageFormat:AGSImageFormatJPG tileMatrixSet:@"EPSG:32633"];

    [self.mapView addMapLayer:wmtsLayer];

I also tried JPEG and PNG24 formats with same result. I can browse the map with no issues.

Has this been this been fixed in the newest Runtime SDK? I'm currently having problems with Core Location in iOS 8 in my app. I've added the keys suggested and it still wont work.

Afaik, the issue I´ve seen is not related to location.

Hi Divesh,

I'm having the same location service issue after migrating to Xcode 6.1 iOS 8.1. I'm using ArcGIS Runtime SDK for iOS 10.2.4. Any suggestions please?

Thanks,

Shimin
