<a name="GeocodeBackend.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>The <a class="link" href="GeocodeBackend.html" title="GeocodeBackend"><span class="type">GeocodeBackend</span></a> interface defines the operations that a resolver
service must implement.</p>
<p>geocode-glib supports multiple backends which provide the underlying
geocoding database and functionality. By default, the <a class="link" href="GeocodeNominatim.html" title="GeocodeNominatim"><span class="type">GeocodeNominatim</span></a>
backend is used with
<a class="ulink" href="https://nominatim.gnome.org/" target="_top">GNOME’s Nominatim server</a>. If you are using
geocode-glib in some GNOME software, this is the correct backend to use.
Otherwise, you should use a new <a class="link" href="GeocodeNominatim.html" title="GeocodeNominatim"><span class="type">GeocodeNominatim</span></a> instance with your own
Nominatim server, or a custom <a class="link" href="GeocodeBackend.html" title="GeocodeBackend"><span class="type">GeocodeBackend</span></a> implementation to use geocoding
data from a non-Nominatim service. In all cases, please respect the terms of
use of the service you are using.</p>
<p>If you are writing a library which uses geocode-glib, consider exposing the
choice of <a class="link" href="GeocodeBackend.html" title="GeocodeBackend"><span class="type">GeocodeBackend</span></a> in your library API, so that applications can make
the best choice about which geocoding backend to use.</p>
<p>Custom backends can be implemented by subclassing <a class="link" href="GeocodeBackend.html" title="GeocodeBackend"><span class="type">GeocodeBackend</span></a> and
implementing the synchronous <code class="literal">forward_search</code> and <code class="literal">reverse_resolve</code> methods.
The asynchronous versions may be implemented as well; the default
implementations run the synchronous version in a thread.</p>
<p>In order to use a custom backend, either instantiate the backend directly
and do forward and reverse queries on it using the <a class="link" href="GeocodeBackend.html" title="GeocodeBackend"><span class="type">GeocodeBackend</span></a> interface;
or create <a class="link" href="GeocodeForward.html" title="GeocodeForward"><span class="type">GeocodeForward</span></a> and <a class="link" href="GeocodeReverse.html" title="GeocodeReverse"><span class="type">GeocodeReverse</span></a> objects as normal, and set
the backend they use with <a class="link" href="GeocodeForward.html#geocode-forward-set-backend" title="geocode_forward_set_backend ()"><code class="function">geocode_forward_set_backend()</code></a> and
<a class="link" href="GeocodeReverse.html#geocode-reverse-set-backend" title="geocode_reverse_set_backend ()"><code class="function">geocode_reverse_set_backend()</code></a>. They default to using the GNOME Nominatim
backend.</p>
<p><a class="link" href="geocode-glib-geocode-mock-backend.html#GeocodeMockBackend"><span class="type">GeocodeMockBackend</span></a> is intended to be used in unit tests for applications
which use geocode-glib — it allows them to set the geocode results they
expect their application to query, and check afterwards that the queries
were performed. Additionally, it works offline, which allows application
unit tests to be run on integration and build machines which are not online.
It is not expected that <a class="link" href="geocode-glib-geocode-mock-backend.html#GeocodeMockBackend"><span class="type">GeocodeMockBackend</span></a> will be used in production code.</p>

<a class="link" href="GeocodeBackend.html#geocode-backend-forward-search" title="geocode_backend_forward_search ()"><code class="function">geocode_backend_forward_search()</code></a> to do the same thing synchronously.</p>
<p>The <em class="parameter"><code>params</code></em>
 hash table is in the format used by Telepathy, and documented
in the <a class="ulink" href="http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/spec/Connection_Interface_Location.html#Mapping:Location" target="_top">Telepathy specification</a>.</p>
<p>See also: <a class="ulink" href="http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0080.html" target="_top">XEP-0080 specification</a>.</p>
<p>When the operation is finished, <em class="parameter"><code>callback</code></em>

<p>Asynchronously gets the result of a reverse geocoding query using the
