I've got a draggable annotation in IOS4 mapkit, and I'm trying to call an event when the annotation is dragged to a new position.
my code currently looks like:
- (void)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView annotationView:(MKAnnotationView *)annotationView
didChangeDragState:(MKAnnotationViewDragState)newState fromOldState:(MKAnnotationViewDragState)oldState
{
if (newState == MKAnnotationViewDragStateEnding)
{
CLLocationCoordinate2D droppedAt = annotationView.annotation.coordinate;
NSLog(@"dropped at %f,%f", droppedAt.latitude, droppedAt.longitude);
//update the annotation
//see if its an information annotation
if ([annotationView.annotation isKindOfClass:[InfoAnnotation class]]) {
NSLog(@"Info annotation updating..");
InfoAnnotation* userAnnotation = ((InfoAnnotation *)annotationView.annotation);
[userAnnotation updateLocationWithServerForConvoy: self.title];
}
}
}
the code simply logs the update and then tells the annotation to send its update to my server, which is a custom method.
This method seems to be getting fired multiple times, see the log here:

Each time I drag it (ie in the gaps) it seems to add 1 to the amount of times it's called. Can anyone give me any idea what may be causing this?
