Well, i'm building an android app, with the user input where her from and the destination, and the map make the trace between the locations, but I'm only have the Address for the two locations.

And I'm not found an option to make this.

Can you help me?

Sorry for my poor english.

Hello felix,

have a look at this tutorial: http://www.anddev.org/viewtopic.php?t=826
Its about DrivingDirections.
In there you'll find a line:

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]

Using java Syntax Highlighting

this.myDD = new DrivingDirection(from_pos, from_name, to_pos, to_name); 
Parsed in 0.030 seconds,  using GeSHi 1.0.8.4

If I remember right, you can pass [font=Lucida Console]null[/font] to [font=Lucida Console]from_pos[/font] and [font=Lucida Console]to_pos[/font] and then pass a Location-describing String to the other params.
But I would not expect it to work very well. As the GeoCoder is not yet working properly.

Regards,
plusminus
