Question

I have problem with this code, "cannot resolve method getMap(). I dont find where is the problem, please need help with code, I use Android Studio and need to take markers locations of mySQL with Json.

    googleMap = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.googleMap)).getMap();`

And here is full code

 public class MainActivity extends FragmentActivity {

    private GoogleMap googleMap;
    private Double Latitude = 0.00;
    private Double Longitude = 0.00;
    private GoogleApiClient client2;

    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT > 9) {
            StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder().permitAll().build();
            StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
        }

        ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> location = null;
        String url = "http://www.evil.cl/getLatLon.php";
        try {

            JSONArray data = new JSONArray(getHttpGet(url));

            location = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
            HashMap<String, String> map;

            for (int i = 0; i < data.length(); i++) {
                JSONObject c = data.getJSONObject(i);

                map = new HashMap<String, String>();
                map.put("LocationID", c.getString("LocationID"));
                map.put("Latitude", c.getString("Latitude"));
                map.put("Longitude", c.getString("Longitude"));
                map.put("LocationName", c.getString("LocationName"));
                location.add(map);

            }

        } catch (JSONException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        googleMap = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.googleMap)).getMap();

Answer 1

getMap() method was depreciated but now after the play-services 9.2 update, it has been removed, so better use getMapAsync(). You can still use getMap() only if you are not willing to update the play-services to 9.2 for your app.

To use getMapAsync(), implement the OnMapReadyCallback interface on your activity or fragment:

public class Fragment_Map extends android.support.v4.app.Fragment
      implements OnMapReadyCallback { }

Then, while initializing the map, use getMapAsync() instead of getMap():

 private void initializeMap() {
  if (mMap == null) {
    SupportMapFragment mapFrag = (SupportMapFragment) getChildFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_map);
    mapFrag.getMapAsync(this);
  }
}

@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
    mMap = googleMap;
    setUpMap();
}
