Hi everybody, its my first post, i'm a newbie of android application.
Thank you for your help.
I'm tryng to follow the tutorial on android site about map viewing.(cant post the url, the forum gives me an error sorry)
But when i try to build the project (i'm working with netbeans) it gives me this error:

Code: Select all

this is my AndroidManifest.xml:


Thank you for help.

The tutorial is this one

In your project there is a section "Libraries".
1. Select "Add JAR/Folder from its context menu.
2. Find "maps.jar" in .../your-android-sdk/add-ons/addon_google_apis_google_inc_8/libs/" and add it.

Make sure that you have downloaded the "Google APIs by Google" in version you want to code (you can do it with .../your-android-sdk/tools/android" tool)

Now just use it by adding

Code: Select all

import com.google.android.maps.*

at the begining of your file

Enjoy

Thank you, i'll try tonight.

I have an Android tablet that does not have the Google APIs extension. I want to ensure that maps.jar is deployed with my project. I have tried the advice from damienix (although I am using Eclipse Helios which seems to be slightly different) and I end up with maps.jar appearing in my Referenced Libraries folder but my project errors in the emulator.

The error seems to be
02-22 21:37:37.395: WARN/dalvikvm(226): Class resolved by unexpected DEX: Lhello/MapView/HelloMapView;(0x44da33a0):0x147b88 ref [Lcom/google/android/maps/MapActivity;] Lcom/google/android/maps/MapActivity;(0x44da33a0):0x14e760

What am i doing wrong?
