Good afternoon everyone,
I've had multiple issues with setting up everything before getting started with Android development that now have been resolved.
However after having followed google's tutorial on how to set up google maps on an Android device I'm slowly starting to give up...
I went through the entirety of the Creating a Map -> Map Objects until I started getting nullpointer exceptions in regards to my getMapAsync(this) and my fragmentManager so I decided to go for the googlemap approach instead.
However even though I am able to display my map fine, I am now unable to show markers on the map.
I'd love for someone to have a quick look in my code to see if they can find any problems. I've already looked through SO and found multiple questions regarding this subject, but none that actually has helped me.
Here is my class:
package com.example.birdview;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.GoogleMap;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.MapFragment;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.OnMapReadyCallback;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.LatLng;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.Marker;
import com.google.android.gms.maps.model.MarkerOptions;

import android.support.v4.app.FragmentActivity;

import android.view.ViewGroup;
public class Startup extends FragmentActivity
implements OnMapReadyCallback {
/*

*/
private void setUpMap(){
try {
if (googleMap == null) {
googleMap = ((MapFragment) getFragmentManager().
findFragmentById(R.id.map)).getMap();
}
googleMap.setMapType(GoogleMap.MAP_TYPE_HYBRID);
}
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
/*
* Private variables:
*/
double latitude = 13.094192 ;
double longitude = 80.121689;
private GoogleMap googleMap;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_startup);
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.container, new PlaceholderFragment()).commit();
}
setUpMap();
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.startup, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
/**
* A placeholder fragment containing a simple view.
*/
public static class PlaceholderFragment extends Fragment {
public PlaceholderFragment() {
}
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_startup, container, false);
return rootView;
}
}
@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap map) {
Marker hamburg = googleMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(new LatLng(latitude, longitude))
.title("Hello Maps"));
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

As mentioned I first was getting nullpointerexception when using the implementation that google (google maps api) provides. After having changed to the current implementation I am now able to show the map, with no instances of markers...
