MGLCoordinateFormatter

 

@interface MGLCoordinateFormatter : NSFormatter

The MGLCoordinateFormatter class provides properly formatted descriptions of geographic coordinate pairs. Use this class to create localized coordinate strings when displaying location information to users.

  • Determines whether the output may contain minutes of arc when nonzero.

    The default value of this property is YES, causing the receiver to include minutes of arc in its output. If allowsSeconds is YES, this property is ignored and the output always includes minutes of arc.

    Declaration

    Objective-C

    @property (nonatomic) BOOL allowsMinutes;

    Swift

    var allowsMinutes: Bool { get set }
