GMSAutocompleteViewController

@interface GMSAutocompleteViewController : UIViewController

GMSAutocompleteViewController provides an interface that displays a table of autocomplete predictions that updates as the user enters text. Place selections made by the user are returned to the app via the GMSAutocompleteViewControllerResultsDelegate protocol.

To use GMSAutocompleteViewController, set its delegate to an object in your app that conforms to the GMSAutocompleteViewControllerDelegate protocol and present the controller (eg using presentViewController). The GMSAutocompleteViewControllerDelegate delegate methods can be used to determine when the user has selected a place or has cancelled selection.
