MKMapPointMBS class

// take some coordinates
Var c1 as new CLLocationCoordinate2DMBS(52.518611, 13.408333) // Berlin
Var c2 as new CLLocationCoordinate2DMBS(48.137222, 11.575556) // Munich

// convert to points on map
Var p1 as MKMapPointMBS = MKMapPointMBS.Point(c1)
Var p2 as MKMapPointMBS = MKMapPointMBS.Point(c2)

// show
MsgBox p1.StringValue+EndOfLine+p2.StringValue

// create locations
Var l1 as new CLLocationMBS(c1.latitude, c1.longitude)
Var l2 as new CLLocationMBS(c2.latitude, c2.longitude)

// show
MsgBox l1.Description+EndOfLine+l2.Description

// now get distance on two ways
Var d1 as Double = MKMapPointMBS.MetersBetweenMapPoints(p1,p2)
Var d2 as Double = l1.distanceFromLocation(l2)

// and format to show
Var s1 as string = MKDistanceFormatterMBS.formatter.stringFromDistance(d1)
Var s2 as string = MKDistanceFormatterMBS.formatter.stringFromDistance(d2)

MsgBox "Distance: "+s1+" vs. "+s2
// not the same due to rounding!
