Source not found at setContentView ~ android programming

Question

I m new at android programming.I try to display simple Google map on android device (4.1.2).

I added all of the permissions and google api key on ActivityManifest.xml

this is activity_maps.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<fragment 
     android:id="@+id/map"
     android:layout_width="match_parent"
     android:layout_height="match_parent"
     class="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"/>

</RelativeLayout>

And this is MapsActivity.java

package com.example.androidmapsapp;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.Toast;

import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment;
import com.google.android.maps.MapActivity;

public class MapsActivity extends MapActivity {

GoogleMap googleMap;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);
    try {
        // Loading map
        initilizeMap();

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

    //GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(getApplicationContext());
    //googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.maps, menu);
    return true;
}

@Override
protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    return false;
}

private void initilizeMap() {
    if (googleMap == null) {
        googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();

        // check if map is created successfully or not
        if (googleMap == null) {
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                    "Sorry! unable to create maps", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT)
                    .show();
        }
    }
}

@Override
protected void onResume() {
    super.onResume();
    initilizeMap();
}

}

While debugging "setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);" it gives Source not found!

Answer 1

I think that your problem is the fact that you activity extends MapActivity which was correct for Google Map API V1, but shouldn't be used for Google Maps API V2. what should be used is a simple Activity or a FragmentActivity depending on which platform you are targeting.

In you case just try to change this line:

public class MapsActivity extends MapActivity {

to this:

public class MapsActivity extends Activity {

if you still having problems you can go over this blog post I wrote to integrate Google Maps API V2 in your application and see if this helps you:
