I am trying to draw route between two points using polyline . I got somewhat route but not correct and I think it will get confused at the turn . I am using google api for getting points of route .Following is code what i tried please check .
- (IBAction)onclickDrawButton:(id)sender
{
flag=TRUE;
NSString *startpoint=[satrtTextfield text];
NSString *endpoint=[endTextfield text];
NSMutableString *urlString=[NSMutableString stringWithFormat:@"http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/directions/json?origin=%@&destination=%@&sensor=false",startpoint,endpoint];
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:urlString];
NSURLRequest *request = [[NSURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:url];
NSURLConnection *connection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:request
delegate:self];
if(connection)
{
NSLog(@"connectin done");
}
}
-(void)connection:(NSURLConnection*)connection didReceiveResponse: (NSURLResponse*)response
{
if(flag)
{
recievedRoutes=[[NSMutableData alloc]init];
}
}
- (void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection
{
if(flag){
NSString *jsonResult = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:recievedRoutes encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(@"json response %@",jsonResult);
NSDictionary *partialJsonDict=[jsonResult JSONValue];
NSArray *items=[partialJsonDict valueForKey:@"routes"];
//NSLog(@"responsed valued %@",[[items objectAtIndex:0]valueForKey:@"legs"]);
NSArray *aary=[[items objectAtIndex:0]valueForKey:@"legs"];
NSLog(@"legs array wuth polyline %@",[[aary objectAtIndex:0]valueForKey:@"steps"]);
NSArray *steps=[[aary objectAtIndex:0]valueForKey:@"steps"];
NSLog(@"steps %@",[[steps objectAtIndex:1]objectForKey:@"polyline"]);
NSMutableString *string=[[NSMutableString alloc]init];
for(int i=0;i<[steps count];i++)
{
//NSLog(@"steps i value %@",[[[steps objectAtIndex:i]objectForKey:@"polyline"]objectForKey:@"sttpoints"]);
[string appendString:[[[steps objectAtIndex:i]objectForKey:@"polyline"]objectForKey:@"points"]];
}
NSLog(@"final %@",string);
MKPolyline *polyline=[self polylineWithEncodedString:string];
[mapView addOverlay:polyline];
[self zoomToFitMapAnnotations:mapView];
}

{

//to decode polyline and retrives coordintes i have used following method
