Chapter 4

[samosim]

I tested the code presented in Chapter 4 on Android 10 and it does not work properly. When I press New button in toolbar, NewDetail page is opened but it stuck. The problem causes the following function:

public override async void Init()
{
try
{
var coords = await _locService.GetGeoCoordinatesAsync();
Latitude = coords.Latitude;
Longitude = coords.Longitude;
}
catch (Exception)
{
// TODO: handle exceptions from location service
}
}

The _locService.GetGeoCoordinatesAsync() method is executed properly but after that Latitude and
Longitude properties start updating infinitely which causing unresponsiveness. I do not understand why OnPropertyChanged() event is called infinitely. If I remove both properties then app works fine.

Update:

I spend some time on this problem and I think that I figure out what was the cause of the problem. By default, I use the Slovenian language and we write decimal numbers with a comma and not with a dot. if I change the language to English then everything works fine. To solve this problem, I think that I have to apply some kind of culture to appropriate binding. I will appreciate any kind of help.
