## Member Function Documentation

### `[virtual noexcept]` QGeoPositionInfoSourceFactory::~QGeoPositionInfoSourceFactory()

Destroys the position info source factory.

### `[pure virtual]` QGeoAreaMonitorSource *QGeoPositionInfoSourceFactory::areaMonitor(QObject *parent, const QVariantMap &parameters)

Returns a new QGeoAreaMonitorSource associated with this plugin with parent parent, and using parameters as configuration parameters. Can also return 0, in which case the plugin loader will use the factory with the next highest priority.

### `[pure virtual]` QGeoPositionInfoSource *QGeoPositionInfoSourceFactory::positionInfoSource(QObject *parent, const QVariantMap &parameters)

Returns a new QGeoPositionInfoSource associated with this plugin with parent parent, and using parameters as configuration parameters. Can also return 0, in which case the plugin loader will use the factory with the next highest priority.

### `[pure virtual]` QGeoSatelliteInfoSource *QGeoPositionInfoSourceFactory::satelliteInfoSource(QObject *parent, const QVariantMap &parameters)

Returns a new QGeoSatelliteInfoSource associated with this plugin with parent parent, and using parameters as configuration parameters. Can also return 0, in which case the plugin loader will use the factory with the next highest priority.
