GPX files for HW3: Penn Dining Scavenger Hunt. You can use these to simulate a device's location using these steps:
If you don't have access to a physical device or don't feel like making the trek to each of the dining halls, worry not! Xcode lets you simulate your device's location using a GPX file. To use it:
- Download the GPX files from the link above.
- Run your app in the simulator or on a device.
- In Xcode's menu bar, go to Debug > Simulate Location > Add GPX File to Project... and select the GPX files for each of the dining halls. (You can shift-click to select multiple files at once.)
- Once you've added the GPX files, you can select them from the Simulate Location menu to simulate your device's location.
Note that if you're running on a physical device, location simulation will only work while your app is actively being run from Xcode. Running your app from the home screen will use the device's actual location.
(You can also use the Features > Location menu in the Simulator, but doing it through Xcode will let you use our GPX files.)
We also provide a Locations.swift file, which will let you easily use the coordinates in your program's code. Once you copy it to your project, you can access a dining hall's coordinates like so:
let diningHall = DiningHall(name: "1920 Commons", coordinates: CLLocationCoordinate2D.commons, /* etc. */)
