How to rotate a Direction Arrow to particular location

Question

In my app I have a latitude-longitude of 1 fix location. Now user with iPhone device can move anywhere and even he rotate his device, the arrow (some uiimageview) should poi

Answer 1

This works for me: to rotate a Direction Arrow to particular location

-(void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad]; 

    locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
    locationManager.delegate = self; 
    locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyBest; 
    locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone;

}

-(void) calculateUserAngle:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)current {
    double x = 0, y = 0 , deg = 0,delLon = 0;

    delLon = fixLon - current.longitude;    
    y = sin(delLon) * cos(fixLat);
    x = cos(current.latitude) * sin(fixLat) - sin(current.latitude) * cos(fixLat) * cos(delLon);    
    deg = RADIANS_TO_DEGREES(atan2(y, x));    

    if(deg<0){      
        deg = -deg;
    } else {
        deg = 360 - deg;
    }    
    degrees = deg;
}


-(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateToLocation:(CLLocation *)newLocation fromLocation:(CLLocation *)oldLocation {

     CLLocationCoordinate2D here =  newLocation.coordinate;
     [self calculateUserAngle:here];
}


- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateHeading:(CLHeading *)newHeading 
{
    arrow.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation((degrees-newHeading.trueHeading) * M_PI / 180);
}
