MapFragment in Fragment, alternatives?

Question

I need your help... I work on it until 3 days. My app is working with fragments. One of these fragments has to display a map from the Google Maps V2 api for Android.

Answer 1

Use MapView instead of MapFragment in your Fragment's layout. Remember to call MapView's lifecycle methods:

• onCreate(Bundle)
• onResume()
• onPause()
• onDestroy()
• onSaveInstanceState(Bundle)
• onLowMemory()

as described here.

Btw. you shouldn't be using MapFragment, only SupportMapFragment and support library.

Edit:

If you switch to support library, you can use code from comment #1 here: http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=5064#c1
