I have a task to show 458 markers to show in Android maps. And to avoid performance related issues I update the data on map using an AsyncTask instance.

Here is a short scenario of what I do.

  1. I fetch the latitude/longitude of 458 locations around UK.
  2. I run the loop and as per Android Blog tutorial I add them in ItemizedOverlay class
  3. After every 50th iteration I call publishProgress method to place 50 markers in map.

After the 50th iteration the flow goes into onProgressUpdate via publishProgress and here is my code of onProgressUpdate method

// MapOverLays = mapView.getOverlays(); 
//This line was called in asyc task's constructor   
// Hello Overlay is an instance of ItemizedOverlay.
mapOverlays.add(helloOverLay);
//MapView.getController - Also called in Constructor
controller.setZoom(12);

controller.animateTo(centerPoint);
controller.setCenter(centerPoint);

This code throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundException and the logcat doesn’t show any of the class from my module. Here is the logcat dump if it elaborates my problem.

P.S. I have tested the application with relatively smaller (10) and relatively larger (150) iterations instead of 50. But the application throws same Error.

    I have temporarily get the solution. Instead of adding pins frequently i first prepare whole data and than add it in map using onPostExecute() as described Android 2.1 GoogleMaps ItemizedOverlay ConcurrentModificationException but it still doesn’t meet my requirement to save the time to load all pins. However i can get rid of that exception. But waiting for any suggestions that improve the loading time…. Thanks anyway… 🙂
