I am getting an error creating a MapView with a layout file. The app has two activities with different layout files. The main activity launched from Home is not a MapAcitivity. It starts the second activity (MapActivity). The error occurs in onCreate() for the first Activity in setContentView(R.layout.main). The error message is
"MapViews can only be created inside instances of MapActivity" which makes sense except main.xml does not have a MapView element. The intention was to to call setContentView(R.layout.mymapview) in the MapActivity. But the MapView is being created with the context of the main (non-map) Activity instead. I have a workaround (directly instantiating the MapView without a layout file) but just wondering if there is a way to control when the layout file Views are created. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
