Not able to get current location in Google Map fragment - java

I am trying to get current location in map fragment but the crashes with an error in line googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
I used Location and Latlang to detect current location.
mapFragment.java
public class mapFragment extends Fragment {
MapView mMapView;
private GoogleMap googleMap;
Location location;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// inflat and return the layout
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_map, container,
false);
mMapView = (MapView) v.findViewById(R.id.mapView);
mMapView.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mMapView.onResume();// needed to get the map to display immediately
try {
MapsInitializer.initialize(getActivity().getApplicationContext());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
googleMap = mMapView.getMap();
// latitude and longitude
LatLng lat = new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude());
/*double latitude = 17.385044;
double longitude = 78.486671;*/
// create marker
MarkerOptions marker = new MarkerOptions().position(
lat).title("Hello Maps");
// Changing marker icon
marker.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory
.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_ROSE));
// adding marker
googleMap.addMarker(marker);
CameraPosition cameraPosition = new CameraPosition.Builder()
.target(lat).zoom(12).build();
googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory
.newCameraPosition(cameraPosition));
// Perform any camera updates here
return v;
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
mMapView.onResume();
}
#Override
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
mMapView.onPause();
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
super.onDestroy();
mMapView.onDestroy();
}
#Override

super.onLowMemory();

}
}

Looks like you have a few issues, but the crash is happening because you need to call getMap() before you call setMyLocationEnabled().
Change this:
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
googleMap = mMapView.getMap();
...to this:
googleMap = mMapView.getMap();
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
Updated: I was able to get this code working.
Getting the current location should be done with the Fused Location Provider API, but that is beyond the scope of this question.
The method in this sample code might work on older devices, but on 4.4.4 it's returning a null location due to getMyLocation() being depricated.
However, with the null check in place the map displays correctly, and you can click on the location button to have the map move to your current location.
MapView mMapView;
private GoogleMap googleMap;
Location location;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// inflat and return the layout
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container,
false);
mMapView = (MapView) v.findViewById(R.id.mapView);
mMapView.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mMapView.onResume();// needed to get the map to display immediately
try {
MapsInitializer.initialize(getActivity().getApplicationContext());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
googleMap = mMapView.getMap();
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
location = googleMap.getMyLocation();
if (location != null) {
// latitude and longitude
LatLng lat = new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude());
//double latitude = 17.385044;
//double longitude = 78.486671;
//LatLng lat = new LatLng(latitude,longitude);
// create marker
MarkerOptions marker = new MarkerOptions().position(
lat).title("Hello Maps");
// Changing marker icon
marker.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory
.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_ROSE));
// adding marker
googleMap.addMarker(marker);
CameraPosition cameraPosition = new CameraPosition.Builder()
.target(lat).zoom(12).build();
googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory
.newCameraPosition(cameraPosition));
}
// Perform any camera updates here
return v;
}

You can use the setOnMyLocationChangeListener method to get the current location. Download the source here(Show Google Map In Android)

There are multiple issues in your code.
First of all, you are using two GoogleMap variables and not correctly initializing either. You only need one.
private GoogleMap mMap;
Secondly, in order to use setMyLocationEnabled you need to request location permissions from the user at runtime:
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) ==
PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED &&
ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, android.Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) ==
PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
mMap.getUiSettings().setMyLocationButtonEnabled(true);
}
Then you are setting currentLocation to null and passing this null variable to your new marker. Instead, use the actual latLng:
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(latLng));
Finally, you are not actually adding any items to your arrayPoints ArrayList. I'd assume you want to do something like this:
arrayPoints.add(marker.getPosition());

You are giving this instead of getActivity(). Correct in onMapReady() like this :
#Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
mMap = googleMap;
if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED && ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// TODO: Consider calling
// ActivityCompat#requestPermissions
// here to request the missing permissions, and then overriding
// public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, String[] permissions,
// int[] grantResults)
// to handle the case where the user grants the permission. See the documentation
// for ActivityCompat#requestPermissions for more details.
}
mMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
}
The problem is that you are doing
ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION)
on line 110 and you need to do
ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(getActivity(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION)

Android Google Maps v2 not showing Compass and Location Icon

I am not able to show the compass icon and the my location icon either. I have the code googleMap.getUiSettings.setMyLocationButtonEnabled(true) and googleMap.getUiSettings().setCompassEnabled(true); but it is not showing on the maps.
package com.ctc.weathermap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.CameraUpdateFactory;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.BitmapDescriptorFactory;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.LatLng;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.MarkerOptions;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.location.Location;
import android.location.LocationListener;
import android.location.LocationManager;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.provider.Settings;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class WeatherMapActivity extends Activity implements LocationListener {
private GoogleMap googleMap;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.weather_maps_main);
LocationManager lm = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
lm.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 0, 0, this);
LocationManager service = (LocationManager) getSystemService(LOCATION_SERVICE);
boolean enabledGPS = service.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);
boolean enabledWiFi = service.isProviderEnabled(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
if (!enabledGPS) {
Toast.makeText(this, "GPS signal not found", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
startActivity(intent);
}
else if(!enabledWiFi) {
Toast.makeText(this, "Network signal not found", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
Intent intent = new Intent(Settings.ACTION_LOCATION_SOURCE_SETTINGS);
startActivity(intent);
}
initializeMap();
googleMap.getUiSettings().setMyLocationButtonEnabled(true);
googleMap.getUiSettings().setCompassEnabled(true);
}
private void initializeMap() {
// check if map is created
if(googleMap == null) {
googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap(); // creates the map
// check if map is created successfully or not
if (googleMap == null) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
"Map could not be created", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
.show();
}
}
}
#Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
initializeMap();
}
#Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
googleMap.clear();
MarkerOptions marker = new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude()));
marker.title("Current location");
marker.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_CYAN));
googleMap.addMarker(marker);
googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude()), 16));
}
#Override
public void onProviderDisabled(String arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override
public void onProviderEnabled(String arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
#Override
public void onStatusChanged(String arg0, int arg1, Bundle arg2) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
The rest of the code works such as markers and what not. I have tried putting the code for location and compass in initializeMap() but it still does not show up. I would appreciate any help. Thank you!
You havent enabled the my-location layer.Check this link for more details
So please do
googleMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
before
googleMap.getUiSettings().setMyLocationButtonEnabled(true);
googleMap.getUiSettings().setCompassEnabled(true);
This will make your setMyLocationButton come up..
And,the compass icon will appear only if you rotate the map to not align to north.

How to include Google Map API v2 into a fragment?

Here is the case that i would like to add a Google API into an action bar which goes to a fragment. But, it failed because the fragment class has to extends FragmentActivity while the action bar not allowed it, anyone could help to fix it? Thanks very much!
MainHome.java
package com.example.demo3;
import android.app.ActionBar;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
public class MainHome extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.mainhome);
initView();
}
private void initView() {
final ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar();
actionBar.setNavigationMode(ActionBar.NAVIGATION_MODE_TABS);
actionBar.setDisplayOptions(0, ActionBar.DISPLAY_SHOW_TITLE);
actionBar.addTab(actionBar
.newTab()
.setText("My Information")
.setTabListener(
new MyTabListener<FragmentPage1>(this,
FragmentPage1.class)));
actionBar.addTab(actionBar
.newTab()
.setText("My Location")
.setTabListener(
new MyTabListener<FragmentPage2>(this,
FragmentPage2.class)));
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.prelog, menu);
return true;
}
}
Fragment2.java
package com.example.demo3;
import android.app.Fragment;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.CameraUpdateFactory;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.BitmapDescriptorFactory;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.LatLng;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.Marker;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.MarkerOptions;
public class FragmentPage2 extends Fragment {
static final LatLng HAMBURG = new LatLng(53.558, 9.927);
static final LatLng KIEL = new LatLng(53.551, 9.993);
private GoogleMap map;
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.locationhome, null, false);
map = ((SupportMapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(
R.id.map)).getMap();
Marker hamburg = map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(HAMBURG)
.title("Hamburg"));
Marker kiel = map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
.position(KIEL)
.title("Kiel")
.snippet("Kiel is cool")
.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory
.fromResource(R.drawable.ic_launcher)));
// Move the camera instantly to hamburg with a zoom of 15.
map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(HAMBURG, 15));
// Zoom in, animating the camera.
map.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(10), 2000, null);
return v;
}
}
It brings that I need to extend FragmentActivity to enable
map = ((SupportMapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
. However, it will make
actionBar.addTab(actionBar
.newTab()
.setText("My Location")
.setTabListener(
new MyTabListener<FragmentPage2>(this,
FragmentPage2.class)));
failed. Anyone could have some suggestion?
Thanks very much!
use mapview instead of mapfragment like this
<com.google.android.gms.maps.MapView
android:id="#+id/map"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
and modify java file like this
public class MyMapFragment extends Fragment {
private MapView mMapView;
private GoogleMap mMap;
private Bundle mBundle;
#Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View inflatedView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.map_fragment, container, false);
try {
MapsInitializer.initialize(getActivity());
} catch (GooglePlayServicesNotAvailableException e) {
// TODO handle this situation
}
mMapView = (MapView) inflatedView.findViewById(R.id.map);
mMapView.onCreate(mBundle);
setUpMapIfNeeded(inflatedView);
return inflatedView;
}
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
mBundle = savedInstanceState;
}
private void setUpMapIfNeeded(View inflatedView) {
if (mMap == null) {
mMap = ((MapView) inflatedView.findViewById(R.id.map)).getMap();
if (mMap != null) {
setUpMap();
}
}
}
private void setUpMap() {
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(0, 0)).title("Marker"));
}
#Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
mMapView.onResume();
}
#Override
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
mMapView.onPause();
}
#Override
public void onDestroy() {
mMapView.onDestroy();
super.onDestroy();
}
}
