Mapview In Fragment ( Android 4.0 Or Higher)

I've been looking for a while to find a good tutorial with code example for a MapView in Fragment for ICS. Anyone have any links?

Solution 1:

Here is a book's sample application showing how to have a MapView in a Fragment in an API Level 11+ app. It's mostly just a MapActivity. Here are the key bits of the fragment that loads the MapView:

publicclassMapFragmentextendsFragment {
  privateMapView map=null;
  privateMyLocationOverlay me=null;

  @OverridepublicViewonCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                            Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    return(newFrameLayout(getActivity()));
  }

  @OverridepublicvoidonActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);

    map=newMapView(getActivity(), "0mjl6OufrY-tHs6WFurtL7rsYyEMpdEqBCbyjXg");
    map.setClickable(true);

    map.getController().setCenter(getPoint(40.76793169992044,
                                            -73.98180484771729));
    map.getController().setZoom(17);
    map.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);

    Drawable marker=getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.marker);

    marker.setBounds(0, 0, marker.getIntrinsicWidth(),
                            marker.getIntrinsicHeight());

    map.getOverlays().add(newSitesOverlay(marker));

    me=newMyLocationOverlay(getActivity(), map);
    map.getOverlays().add(me);

    ((ViewGroup)getView()).addView(map);
  }

  // rest of fragment here
}
