Using MapFragment instead of SupportMapFragment

In previous exercises of "A simple example using Google Maps Android API v2", I embedded fragment of SupportMapFragment. In this exercise, I change back to MapFragment instead of SupportMapFragment. Such that we can compare the difference between them.

First of all, to use com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment, we have to modify AndroidManifest.xml to change android:minSdkVersion to "11".

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.androidmapsv2"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="11"
        android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
    
    <permission 
        android:name="com.example.androidmapsv2.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE" 
        android:protectionLevel="signature"></permission>
    <uses-permission 
        android:name="com.example.androidmapsv2.permission.MAPS_RECEIVE"/>
    <uses-permission 
        android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/>
    <uses-permission 
        android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
    <uses-permission 
        android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
    <uses-permission 
        android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
    <uses-permission 
        android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
    
    <uses-feature
        android:glEsVersion="0x00020000"
        android:required="true"/>
    
    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <meta-data
            android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
            android:value="AIzaSyBD9fsiMd_G9Pzeq2Eqas2FwJjzMGbSOnA"/>
        <activity
            android:name="com.example.androidmapsv2.MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

Modify /res/layout/activity_main.xml to include fragment of class "com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment".

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context=".MainActivity" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/locinfo"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
    <fragment
        android:id="@+id/map"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        class="com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment"/>

</LinearLayout>

Finally, modify main code, MainActivity.java extends Activity instead of FragmentActivity, also update the imports from com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment to com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment, android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager to android.app.FragmentManager.

package com.example.androidmapsv2;

import com.google.android.gms.common.ConnectionResult;
import com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesUtil;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.CameraUpdateFactory;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment;
//import com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap.OnMapClickListener;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.LatLng;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.FragmentManager;
import android.location.Location;
import android.os.Bundle;
//import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;
//import android.support.v4.app.FragmentManager;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnMapClickListener{
 
 final int RQS_GooglePlayServices = 1;
 private GoogleMap myMap;
 
 Location myLocation;
 TextView tvLocInfo;

 @Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
  
  tvLocInfo = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.locinfo);
  
  FragmentManager myFragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
  MapFragment myMapFragment 
   = (MapFragment)myFragmentManager.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
  myMap = myMapFragment.getMap();
  
  myMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
  
  myMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_HYBRID);
  //myMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_NORMAL);
  //myMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_SATELLITE);
  //myMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_TERRAIN);
  
  myMap.setOnMapClickListener(this);
  

 }
 
 @Override
 public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
  // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
  getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.activity_main, menu);
  return true;
 }

 @Override
 public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
  switch (item.getItemId()) {
     case R.id.menu_legalnotices:
      String LicenseInfo = GooglePlayServicesUtil.getOpenSourceSoftwareLicenseInfo(
        getApplicationContext());
      AlertDialog.Builder LicenseDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);
      LicenseDialog.setTitle("Legal Notices");
      LicenseDialog.setMessage(LicenseInfo);
      LicenseDialog.show();
         return true;
     }
  return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
 }

 @Override
 protected void onResume() {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
  super.onResume();

  int resultCode = GooglePlayServicesUtil.isGooglePlayServicesAvailable(getApplicationContext());
  
  if (resultCode == ConnectionResult.SUCCESS){
   Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), 
     "isGooglePlayServicesAvailable SUCCESS", 
     Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
  }else{
   GooglePlayServicesUtil.getErrorDialog(resultCode, this, RQS_GooglePlayServices);
  }
  
 }

 @Override
 public void onMapClick(LatLng point) {
  tvLocInfo.setText(point.toString());
  myMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(point));
 }

}
