i'm working on an android app in eclipse (version 3.6.2) & i just added the following: import android.webkit.GeolocationPermissions;

But i get an error ... the import cannot be resolved ...

however these omports all DO get resolved: import android.webkit.WebView; import android.webkit.WebViewClient; import android.webkit.HttpAuthHandler; import android.webkit.WebChromeClient; import android.webkit.WebSettings;

can someone tell my why this 1 is unresolved & what i can do to get it to resolve?

thanks

& the answer is :

i needed to upgrade the sdk i was using .. from level 3 to level 5 ...

question answered .. thanks

I had this same problem, and the code worked when

public void onGeolocationPermissionsShowPrompt(String origin, GeolocationPermissions.Callback callback) { callback.invoke(origin, true, false); }

was changed to

public void onGeolocationPermissionsShowPrompt(String origin, android.webkit.GeolocationPermissions.Callback callback) { callback.invoke(origin, true, false); }

The only subtle difference is using android.webkit.GeolocationPermissions in place of GeolocationPermissions

I'm using Eclipse Helios Service Release 2. Here is mine... it is built for Android 2.1 and it works fine...

import android.webkit.GeolocationPermissions;
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;

/* ... your other stuff here ... */

WebView webview1 = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webView);

/*... more other stuff here ...*/

webview1.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

webview1.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
    public void onGeolocationPermissionsShowPrompt(String origin, GeolocationPermissions.Callback callback) {
        callback.invoke(origin, true, false);
    }
});

webview1.getSettings().setGeolocationDatabasePath("/data/data/<my-app>");

And dont forget to add the following to your manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" /> 
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_GPS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_ASSISTED_GPS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />

Hope it helps!
