I have a map activity which displays the map, I want to add a marker when I touch on the screen ..
This is my Activity ...

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);

initLayout();
initMap();
}
private void initLayout(){
mapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapview);
//blueIcon = (Drawable)this.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.blueicon);
}
private void initMap(){
mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
mapView.setStreetView(true);
mapController=mapView.getController();
mapController.setZoom(10);// 1 is world view
locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER,0, 0, new GeoUpdateHandler());
}
@Override
protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return false;
}
class GeoUpdateHandler implements LocationListener {
@Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
int lat=(int)(location.getLatitude()*1E6);
int lng=(int)(location.getLongitude()*1E6);
GeoPoint point=new GeoPoint(lat,lng);
//GeoPoint point = new GeoPoint(19240000,-99120000);
mapController.animateTo(point);
mapController.setCenter(point);
Drawable redIcon = context.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.redicon);
List<Overlay> mapOverlays = mapView.getOverlays();
MyItemizedOverlay itemizedoverlay = new MyItemizedOverlay(redIcon);
OverlayItem overlayitem = new OverlayItem(point, "Hello !", "I'm here");
itemizedoverlay.addOverlay(overlayitem);
mapOverlays.add(itemizedoverlay);
}
@Override

}
@Override

// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event){
int x=(int)event.getX();
int y=(int)event.getY();
Toast.makeText(context, x, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
GeoPoint point = mapView.getProjection().fromPixels(x, y);
Drawable redIcon = context.getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.blueicon);
List<Overlay> mapOverlays = mapView.getOverlays();
MyItemizedOverlay itemizedoverlay = new MyItemizedOverlay(redIcon);
OverlayItem overlayitem = new OverlayItem(point, "New Place", "I clicked here !");
itemizedoverlay.addOverlay(overlayitem);
mapOverlays.add(itemizedoverlay);
return false;
}
}
}
Edit : This is the class for ItemizedOverlay, where I have implemented onTap() method , but nothing happens ...
