mapfragment

I have searched around on how to get the coordinates of a location when the map is tapped. However, most, if not all the examples require a MapView as a parameter. For example: public boolean onTap(GeoPoint p, MapView map){ if ( isPinch ){ return false; }else{ Log.i(TAG,"TAP!"); if ( p!=null ){ handleGeoPoint(p); return true; // We handled the tap }else{ return false; // Null GeoPoint } } } @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent e, MapView mapView) { int fingers = e.getPointerCount(); if( e.getAction()==MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN ){ isPinch=false; // Touch DOWN, don't know if it's a

I would know the differences because I'm developing an app and I would introduce Google Map API v2 for compiling above Android 2.3. Which should I use? Ferdous Ahamed MapView: A View which displays a map (with data obtained from the Google Maps service). When focused, it will capture key-presses and touch gestures to move the map. Users of this class must forward all the life cycle methods from the Activity or Fragment containing this view to the corresponding ones in this class. Use it if you are going to add a map into a fragment . (you need to update each lifecycle to MapView). See Google

As far as I can see, MapFragment has an issue with transition animations. All views on the layout are getting shown immediately, including the MapFragment's own views (like zoom buttons). But the map itself gets loaded with a lag only after the animation is completed. In order to illustrate the problem, I did the following: I changed one of the Activities in the Google maps android API examples slightly. It opens a blank activity via an Action Item. When I click back button, the map gets loaded, but only after the transition is completed. I exaggerated the transition effect a little bit, so
