FourSquare API for iphone

Question

As I need to integrate the foursquare in my application, I have found the API and also integrate in my application. But there is some problem.

I want to show the nearest venue around me. As there is also method to show the venue

+(void)searchVenuesNearByLatitude:(NSString*)lat
                    longitude:(NSString*)lon
                   accuracyLL:(NSString*)accuracyLL
                     altitude:(NSString*)altitude
                  accuracyAlt:(NSString*)accuracyAlt
                        query:(NSString*)query
                        limit:(NSString*)limit
                       intent:(NSString*)intent
                     callback:(Foursquare2Callback)callback;

But the problem is what are the parameter need to pass for search venue which are in area of 5 KM. Can any one help me to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance,

accuracyLL - this stands for accuracy Latitude Longitude.

Your foursquare library you'll see it's a wrapper for the foursquare API documented here: https://developer.foursquare.com/docs/venues/search.html

llAcc is the location accuracy in meters. For 5Km you would use 5000.

If you use oauth login method that would become more easy, You have to login through oauth 2.0 then using access token you can get any user details. I have found a very nice tutorial related to oauth, I hope this would help you
