public class GeofenceManager extends Object implements Iterable<Geofence>
GeofenceManager maintains a "bubble" region around the current device location. You may register as many regions as you like to be monitored with GeofenceManager, but it will only register the regions that intersect the current "bubble" region. When you exit the bubble region, the GeofenceManager will clear all of the previously registered regions, create a new bubble, and then register only those regions that intersect this new bubble.
GeofenceManager uses Storage to maintain its own active list of regions.
GeofenceManager will only register 19 regions at a time, so if more than 19 regions intersect the current "bubble"
region, some of them won't make the cut. You can set the radius of the "bubble" region using setBubbleRadius(int)
to increase or decrease the "bubble" region area, so that no regions are left behind.
Although you can set any positive radius value you like, a typical Android or iOS device has a minimum effective radius of about 100m.
Note: If your app uses GeofenceManager, you shouldn't also add your own Geofences manually using LocationManager.addGeoFencing(java.lang.Class, com.codename1.location.Geofence)
as your manual regions may conflict.
GeofenceManager mgr = GeofenceManager.getInstance();
mgr.setListenerClass(MyGeofenceListener.class);
mgr.add(geofence1, geofence2, geofence3);
mgr.update(10000);
And the MyGeofenceListener class should be an instance of Geofence.
While there is no absolute limit on the number of regions that you can register in GeofenceManager
simulataneously, since it is actually storing the list of Geofences in Storage, there is a practical limit. E.g.
It probably wouldn't perform well if you stored several thousand at a time. If you want to monitor large quantifies
of regions (thousands, or millions), you can simply respond to the GeofenceListener.onExit(java.lang.String) event
for the "bubble" region, and "reload" the GeofenceManager with new regions related to the device's current location.
You might load the new locations from a web-service, for example. Use the isBubble(java.lang.String) method
to check if the id parameter is for the bubble region, and act accordintly.
