double click/tap map zoom (Android) [duplicate]

Answer 1

I was unable to get http://nocivus.posterous.com/double-clicktap-detection-on-a to work as many others did as it would not allow me to cast mapView = (MyMapView) findViewById(R.id.mapview); that being said the best solution I got was based on the answer at Double Tap Zoom in GoogleMaps Activity:

myLocationOverlay = new MyLocationOverlay(this, mapView);

MyItemizedOverlay itemizedOverlay = new MyItemizedOverlay() {
    private long systemTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

    @Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event, MapView mapView) {
        switch (event.getAction()) {
        case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
            if ((System.currentTimeMillis() - systemTime) < ViewConfiguration.getDoubleTapTimeout()) {
                mapController.zoomInFixing((int) event.getX(), (int) event.getY());
            }
            break;
        case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
            systemTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
            break;
        }

        return false;
    }
};
