Installation guide

mapView.setSatellite(false);

//get map controller

mapController = mapView.getController();

//set the initial zoom level

mapController.setZoom(10);

//move the location to Stockholm at the time when the map was loaded

mapController.animateTo(point);

 Change public class MainActivity extends Activity into public class MainActivity extends

MapActivity.

 Define three variables as follows in the public class MainActivity extends MapActivity.

private MapView mapView;

private MapController mapController;

private GeoPoint point;

 Do some necessary modification to ensure MainActivity.java includes following imports.

import com.google.android.maps.GeoPoint;

import com.google.android.maps.MapActivity;

import com.google.android.maps.MapController;

import com.google.android.maps.MapView;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.view.Menu;

1.5. Edit AndroidManifest.xml

 Double click AndroidManifest.xml and choose AndroidManifest.xml tab.

 To ensure the application could find the package of Google Map, add <uses-library

android:name="com.google.android.maps" /> between </activity> and </application>.

 To ensure our application has the permission to use Internet connection, add

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/> after <uses-sdk

android:minSdkVersion="7" />.

1.6. Run the Android Emulator

 Before you run the emulator, make sure Google APIs7 has already lunched in Android

Virtual Devices Manager. Good luck if Google map jumps up after running the emulator.

Have a screen shot for your fantastic work.
