I have this class to get actual location , the second point (marker) is set by another fragment.
I really need to update my location automatically instead clicking the google button for it. How can I make this? What is the best way to make this? I don´t figure out where to place it. I was thinking in placing a timer or something like that. I would prefer to make it with just google maps functionalities.
Timer timer = new Timer();
timer.schedule(new TimerTask() {
public void run() {
}
}, 0, 500000);
Or with a handler
final Runnable r = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
//Here add your code location listener call
handler.postDelayed(this, 300000 );
}
};
handler.postDelayed(r, 300000 );
