I apologize if this is a duplicate post.  I tried posting this over an
hour ago and there is no indicator that it posted.

I am attempting to launch a dialog type window when I click an Overlay
that has been placed on google maps.  I thought the way I would do
this was Override the onTap() method, create an intent, and call
startActivity on that intent as follows:

Intent myIntent = new Intent(context, MyActivity.class);
myIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActivity(myIntent);

It looks like the program throws an ActivityNotFoundException when
executing that last line.  The exception reads that if you try to
start an Activity while you are not in an Activity you need to set the
FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK flag which is why that line is there.  I have
included MyActivity in my manifest.

'context' is passed to my class constructor that extends Overlay and
is the MapActivity that I am using to display the map.

Considering how I have not been able to find anyone on the internet
with this problem, I am beginning to think I am going at this all
wrong.  If anyone knows of a good description of how what I am trying
to do is supposed to work or a tutorial doing what I am trying to do,
please post that.
