How can I get my current location ? [Android Google Map V2]

Question

Here is my .Java file

import com.google.android.gms.maps.*;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.*;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class GoogleMap extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.googlemap);

        // Get a handle to the Map Fragment
        GoogleMap map = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();

        LatLng sydney = new LatLng(-33.867, 151.206);

        map.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
        map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(sydney, 13));

        map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().title("Sydney").snippet("The most populous city in Australia.").position(sydney));
    }
}

XML

<fragment xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/map"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment" />



//GoogleMap map = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();

There is an error which is :

Type mismatch: cannot convert from com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap to com.example.locdroid_v2.GoogleMap

As you all said i had

-Change Activity to FragmentActivity

-GoogleMap map = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();

Answer 1

You need to change

 GoogleMap map = ((SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();

because in your xml fiel you have used SupportMapFragment class.

Another thing is that extends your class as a FragmentActivity instead of Activity.

Remove these

 <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" />
 <activity android:name="com.example.locdroid_v2.GoogleMap"
           android:screenOrientation="portrait" >

Or change your Activity Name from GoogleMap to another and register as

 <activity android:name="com.example.locdroid_v2.MyGoogleMapActivity"
           android:screenOrientation="portrait" >

from your manifest file.
