Location API and Google Maps in Android - Tutorial

[Bz]

Hi I was recently doing the Location API and Google Maps in Android -
Tutorial. I went on to part four using google map api, all was fine
until I tried to implement the override GeoUpdateHandler implements
LoctionListener class ( the final part). When I enter the "@override"
above the method onLocationChanged, Eclipse keeps telling me as a
error "The method onLocationChanged(Location) of type
MosqueFinder.GeoUpdateHandler must override a superclass method". I am
new to Android and would apreciate the help.Thanks

Hi,

you have to set the Java version is Eclipse to Java 1.6. Google should
help in finding the answer to this.

Best regards, Lars

Please read what I have to say about this problem at http://www.javahotchocolate.com/tutorials/android.html. I think you'll find the solution is one of those listed in there.

Principally, though, until your layout(s), strings and other XML resources are set up accurately, all sorts of bad things from a missing R to R missing a field can happen.

Also, from your code, I see you're not giving useful names to some of your resources (like your second TextView definition). Ensuring good names takes a couple of seconds longer, but it's clean and helpful later.

Best of luck...

Hi Russ,

Which part of your tutorial extension does relate to the question?

Best regards, Lars

Try Project -> Clean to recreate the the R.java for
http://www.vogella.de/articles/AndroidLocationAPI/article.html

If this does not help, please have a look at the LogCat View as
described in http://www.vogella.de/articles/Android/article.html

There is a table of contents. Look down for "R.java" under a discussion of XML questions.

Sorry, I should have given that because it's a very long article.

Hi,
I am working on your code. The GPS application runs without any errors
but it isnt displaying the coordinates. It just says "Provider not
available". I'm using the DDMS perspective to send the coordinates to
the emulator. At the startup a toast saying "Disenabled provider
network" pops up. Please help me.

[Bz]

HI Lars, Me again!! (LOL). The tutorial above works fine now. The
problem I have is when I start up the emulator, there is marker their
to show your position (sometimes), when I changed my position using
the emulator controls the map location of the new positions comes up
but the position marker does not. Please can you help thanking you in
advance. Bz

[Lars Vogel]

Because you used SupportFragment I assume. If you use Fragment this works fine.

Hi all - Android is new to me so I've been heavily using Vogellas tutorials ( thanks for these ) and I wanted to share this link ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16004137/supportmapfragment-cannot-cast-from-fragment-to-mapfragment )

In short I was following the Maps API2 tutorial and wanted to use it with in a fragment how ever I was getting the Error "Cannot cast from Fragment to MapFragment".

The fix was to use SupportMapFragment and not MapFragment.... hopfully this will help some one.
