Question

I am developing an framework which is used overall the application, Which extends an activity, But in some scenario am using maps in my project, So i need to extend MapActivity,I can’t Activity for example,

Framework Level,

Activity extends CommonActivity extends MainActivity

Here is my problem,

If i extends MapActivity instead of Activity it causes any problem or it has any drawbacks?

Thanks,

Answer 1

I don’t think so there are any drawbacks of map activity because map activity extends Activity Class.

public abstract class MapActivity extends android.app.Activity

But You have to Run your application on a device or emulator that has Google Maps installed.
