Field

int	FORMAT_DEGREES Constant used to specify formatting of a latitude or longitude in the form "[+-]DDD.DDDDD where D indicates degrees.
int	FORMAT_MINUTES Constant used to specify formatting of a latitude or longitude in the form "[+-]DDD:MM.MMMMM" where D indicates degrees and M indicates minutes of arc (1 minute = 1/60th of a degree).
int	FORMAT_SECONDS Constant used to specify formatting of a latitude or longitude in the form "DDD:MM:SS.SSSSS" where D indicates degrees, M indicates minutes of arc, and S indicates seconds of arc (1 minute = 1/60th of a degree, 1 second = 1/3600th of a degree).

Constructor

	Location(String provider) Construct a new Location with a named provider.
	Location(Location l) Construct a new Location object that is copied from an existing one.
	Location
