Google map not showing up on iPhone

[cha...@moondustapp.com]

 iPhone 5S, iOS 8.3 (12F70). Codename One lib v 121.

The Google map works quite well on the simulator, but nothing renders on iPhone. Below are the properties that might be relevant. (Some of these I added from the documentation, others seem to have been recently introduced by the new library update.) 

 

codename1.arg.ios.objC=true

codename1.arg.ios.glAppDelegateHeader=\n\#import "GoogleMaps/GoogleMaps.h"

codename1.arg.ios.pods.platform=7.0

codename1.arg.android.includeGPlayServices=true
codename1.arg.ios.afterFinishLaunching=[GMSServices provideAPIKey\:@"..."];

codename1.arg.ios.pods=,GoogleMaps

codename1.arg.ios.pods.sources=,https\://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git

Here is my simple code.

        final MapContainer mapContainer = new MapContainer();
        form.add(mapContainer);
        Coord position = new Coord(40.748817, -73.985428);
        mapContainer.setCameraPosition(position);

I will note that in the simulator, I am getting this error message

WARNING: Apple will no longer accept http URL connections from applications you tried to connect to http://tile.openstreetmap.org/4/3/3.png to learn more check out https://www.codenameone.com/blog/ios-http-urls.html

Thank you!

The simulator doesn't show the actual native maps so it will "just work".
Did you set the API key properly?

[cha...@moondustapp.com]

Yes, I just double checked it against the Google API console.

I added this line of libs

codename1.arg.ios.add_libs=libc++.dylib;libicucore.dylib;libz.dylib;CoreData.framework;CoreText.framework;GLKit.framework;ImageIO.framework;SystemConfiguration.framework

and nothing changed.

That's not the key see this:

See my last paragraph, connect the device with DDMS and see if it prints out an error this usually includes corrected SHA values...

Right, my iOS API key is in the properties file like

codename1.arg.ios.afterFinishLaunching=[GMSServices provideAPIKey\:@"AIza...D6yw"];

along with (relevant for iOS)

codename1.arg.ios.objC=true

codename1.arg.ios.pods.platform=7.0

codename1.arg.ios.add_libs=libc++.dylib;libicucore.dylib;libz.dylib;CoreData.framework;CoreText.framework;GLKit.framework;ImageIO.framework;SystemConfiguration.framework

codename1.arg.ios.glAppDelegateHeader=\n\#import "GoogleMaps/GoogleMaps.h"
codename1.arg.ios.pods=,GoogleMaps
codename1.arg.ios.pods.sources=,https\://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git
codename1.arg.ios.includePush=true

I'm having the trouble on iPhone, so no DDMS. Evidently something else is wrong in the properties file? These new lines that mention "ios.pods" weren't added by me, but presumably by the ant building process.

I generated an Android API key too, and the map loads on the Android version, except the MapContainer is only one tile high! And I tried making it bigger with a setHeight(), which didn't work. How can I force it larger?

Thank you!

So this is probably an issue with the layout. Make sure your form has a border layout and that the map is placed in the center of that.
