How to programmatically enable GPS in Android Cupcake

Solution
You can't, starting with Android 1.5. The most you can do is pop open the activity to allow the user to toggle it on/off. Use the action held in `android.provider.Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS` to craft an Intent to open this activity.
Problem
I'm currently writing an app in Android that works with the GPS. At the moment I'm able to work out whether the GPS is enabled. My problem is that I want to enable the GPS on app startup if it is disabled. How can I do this programmaticaly?
