Testing CoreLocation on iPhone Simulator

Here is my simple hack that forces the CLLocationMager to return
the geocoords of Powell’s Tech Bookstore only on the simulator:

#ifdef TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR 

@interface CLLocationManager (Simulator)
@end

@implementation CLLocationManager (Simulator)

-(void)startUpdatingLocation {
    CLLocation *powellsTech = [[[CLLocation alloc] initWithLatitude:45.523450 longitude:-122.678897] autorelease];
    [self.delegate locationManager:self
               didUpdateToLocation:powellsTech
                      fromLocation:powellsTech];    
}

@end

#endif // TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR
