Android emulator: disconnect GPS device from provider

Question

I am developing a GPS enabled application on Android. There is no problem with the map display, but I want to test how my code would react to the situation in which the user enters a room, basement or a cave, so that the device would stop receiving any signal. My question is whether I can simulate this programatically or by using the DDMS, and if so, then how?

P.S. The point is to test it all on the emulator, not a real device. Thank you.

Fixes only come into the emulator when you push them over (e.g., via the Emulator Control tab). If you don't want the emulator to receive fixes, don't send them.
