Current Location output?

[Dan the Man]

hello, I have been trying to get the users location. And I have a map that shows the location, but how do I get that outputed to a variable (float) or something?

Do I have to use the core locations or can I stick to the Map Kit?

MKMapView *aMapView = ...
MKUserLocation *userLocation = [aMapView userLocation];
CLLocation *location = [userLocation location];

but how do i put that into an alert view? And where do I put that block of code so that it happens when the location is found?

Register an MKMapViewDelegate with your MKMapView and implement this method

- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView didUpdateUserLocation:(MKUserLocation *)userLocation
