Look for coordinates - display an info window with a name on Google Maps

Question

In Google Maps v2 GClientGeocoder.getLocations() you can search for an address or for GLatLng.

Is there a way to combine these two, namely:

• search for a string containing both values, something like Home @12.345,21.8970
• have the result (anchored at the coordinates) on map with a place name (Home) in the info window?

Answer 1

Finally found. :)

Type into Google Maps search field:

12.345,21.8970 (Whatever)
