Error description
The Cordova geolocation plugin and camera plugin do not work when an application is built using XCode 6 for iOS8
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * An issue with geolocation and camera that affects all * * versions of Cordova on iOS 8 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * Basically what is going on is that Apple changed the API and * * the permissions for geolocation in iOS 8, so there needs to * * be special handling in Cordova to deal with that. Otherwise * * the geolocation services won't have permission to run. Since * * the camera attempts to insert geolocation data in the EXIF * * header of pictures, the camera is also affected. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * * Cordova is fixed for the affected versions of Worklight: * * 5.0.6, 6.0, 6.1, and 6.2. * ****************************************************************
