I have a simple google maps implementation, I'm filling two typed arrays with doubles from my strings.xml so I can use them to fill in as longitudes and latitudes.
Here is the method:
@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap map) {
map.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
TypedArray lats = getResources().obtainTypedArray(R.array.Lats);
TypedArray longs = getResources().obtainTypedArray(R.array.Longs);
int length = longs.getIndexCount();
Log.e("MY APP LOG", "here");
Log.e("MY APP LOG", "length = " + length);
for(int i = 0; i < length; i++)
{
LatLng coord = new LatLng(lats.getFloat(i,0),longs.getFloat(i,0));
Log.e("MY APP LOG", "here2");
Log.e("MY APP LOG", "latitude = " + lats.getFloat(i,0));
map.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
.title("Sydney")
.snippet("The most populous city in Australia.")
.position(coord));
}
LatLng coord = new LatLng(lats.getFloat(0,0),longs.getFloat(0,0));
map.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(coord, 13));
}
My strings.xml:
<array name="Lats">
<item>-33.867</item>
<item>-33.869</item>
<item>-33.871</item>
<item>-33.873</item>
<item>-33.876</item>
<item>-33.881</item>
<item>-33.883</item>
<item>-33.885</item>
<item>-33.891</item>
</array>
<array name="Longs">
<item>151.206</item>
<item>151.209</item>
<item>151.211</item>
<item>151.205</item>
<item>151.204</item>
<item>151.207</item>
<item>151.203</item>
<item>151.201</item>
<item>151.200</item>
</array>
The logcat shows:
04-30 05:00:00.727 24986-24986/com.example.andrew.ubair4 E/MY APP LOG﹕ here
04-30 05:00:00.727 24986-24986/com.example.andrew.ubair4 E/MY APP LOG﹕ length = 0
