I tried to use Google map API. But its giving error on following lines.

1) when i import this package — (import com.google.android.maps.MapView) it give error and ask to make a class MapView in com.google. android.maps

2) When i extend MapViewActivity in class it gives error In androidmaifest.xml that (com.gmap.GoogleMap does not extend android.app.Activity) near .

Please Help. Your Help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks a lot The permissions was the last missing thing in my trial (map view was blank without it…). An i have not found it in other tutorials and examples.

Thanks for this post.. It help me a lot. I was also thinking of this way to use an MD5 Generated for application and not using the Eclipse Debug keystore.. Thanks..

I have not tried creating the views in .java. I suspect that it would encounter the same issue as the problem was with the cert matching the google maps api key. Did this using the debug key work for you?

Hi
Have been trying to sort a similar problem but not using XML file that has the views for the activity just in a .java file… Have you tried this?
