CoreLocation object, can't assign longitude - objective-c

Question

I'm building an app that works with MapKit and I need to get coordinates from Google Maps.
I made a function that does this (and through debugging I know I get the good coordinates), but it then crashes when I try to assign it to my event object's coordinates.
Below is the code and I've clearly commented with // <---------------- where it fails...
AppDelegate.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <MapKit/MapKit.h>
#import <CoreLocation/CoreLocation.h>
#import "MapViewController.h"
#import "Event.h"
#interface AppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate, MKMapViewDelegate, CLLocationManagerDelegate>{
CLLocationManager *locationManager;
}
//-(void)makeTestData:(int)amount;
-(void) addressLocation:(NSString*)adres:(Event*)event;
#property (strong, nonatomic) UIWindow *window;
//#property (strong, nonatomic) NSMutableArray *events;
#end
AppDelegate.m
#import "AppDelegate.h"
#import "ListViewController.h"
#import "Event.h"
#import <RestKit/RestKit.h>
#implementation AppDelegate{
NSMutableArray *events;
/* for test data */
NSMutableArray *titles;
}
#synthesize window = _window;
//#synthesize events;
-(void) addressLocation:(NSString*)adres: (Event*)event {
NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=%#&output=csv&key=MYKEY",
[adres stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
NSString *locationString = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString]];
NSArray *listItems = [locationString componentsSeparatedByString:#","];
double latitude = 0.0;
double longitude = 0.0;
if([listItems count] >= 4 && [[listItems objectAtIndex:0] isEqualToString:#"200"]) {
latitude = [[listItems objectAtIndex:2] doubleValue];
longitude = [[listItems objectAtIndex:3] doubleValue];
}
else {
//Show error
}
CLLocationCoordinate2D location;
location.latitude = latitude;
location.longitude = longitude; // <----- Checked in debugging, coords are good
event.coordinate.latitude = latitude; // <----- can't assign the latitude here =/
event.coordinate.longitude = longitude; // <----- can't assign the longitude here =/
}
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
// START COMMUNICATOIN WITH REST INTERFACE
//RKClient* client = [RKClient clientWithBaseURL:#"link"];
//NSLog(#"I am your RKClient singleton : %#", [RKClient sharedClient]);
// -------------------TEST OBJECTS
//makeTestData(3);
events = [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:3];
titles = [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:3];
[titles addObject:#"Gent Jazz Festival"];
[titles addObject:#"Over blauw bloed en witte billenbijters - zoektocht in het Prinsenhof (zonder gids)"];
[titles addObject:#"DuveltTent"];
Event *event = [[Event alloc] init];
event.title = [titles objectAtIndex:(rand()*100)%3];
event.description = #"omminommie!!!";
event.zone = #"fzfzefez";
event.gemeente = #"Gent";
event.plaats = #"";
event.straat = #"Sint-Veerleplein";
NSString *adres = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#, %#", event.gemeente, event.straat];
[self addressLocation:adres:event]; //<---- This function fails, see above for def
event.zone = #"blub";
[events addObject:event];
...
---- EDIT
Like the code is, as above, it doesn't even compile and gives the error:
Expression is not assignable
When I use = location (which I did before) as suggested above I get the following error:
2012-07-13 17:14:20.608 Zone-It-new[565:707] -[Event setCoordinate:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x283ab0

Here are my event.h and event.m
event.h
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <CoreLocation/CoreLocation.h>
#import <MapKit/MapKit.h>
#import <RestKit/RestKit.h>
#interface Event : NSObject <MKAnnotation>
// required property from mkanotation
#property (nonatomic, readonly) CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate;
// Optional
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *title;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *description;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *zone;
#property (nonatomic, assign) NSString *gemeente;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *straat;
#property (nonatomic, assign) int deelnemers;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSDate *start;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSDate *einde;
#property (nonatomic, copy) NSString *plaats;
#property (nonatomic, readonly) int id_nr;
#property (nonatomic, assign) int huisnummer;
#end
event.m
#import "Event.h"
#implementation Event
#synthesize coordinate, title, zone, gemeente, straat, deelnemers, start, einde, plaats, id_nr, huisnummer, description;
#end
Important to note, maybe, is that ARC is on.

Answer 1

Have you tried changing the coordinate property to readwrite? (assign would be a good choice.)
