Accessing iphone maps bookmarks through SDK

Question

Does anyone know of a way to access the bookmarks of the "Maps" application programmatically through the SDK? I'd like to read and write bookmarks if possible. Ideas?

Thanks!

Answer 1

I am pretty sure the answer is no. I considered two possible solutions:

• Can you access the data persisted by the Maps app directly

There isn't a generic way of sharing data between apps, so a no for this approach.

• Can you access the bookmarks through the new 3.0 MapKit Framework.

No. Unless I have missed it. It doesn't look like the MapKit exposes this functionality.
