Question

I made a map with the help of a map view.My map is working and also it allows me me to make a screenshot of the maap.But I am not able to locate my current location.i dont knw why my code is shown here.can anyone tell me how can i locate my current location.

     locationManager = (LocationManager) getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);    

        locationListener = new GPSLocationListener();


        locationManager.requestLocationUpdates(
            LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER, 
            0, 
            0, 
            locationListener);

//        Location intial = locationManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.NETWORK_PROVIDER);
//        GeoPoint mainone=new GeoPoint((int) (intial.getLatitude() * 1E6), 
//                (int) (intial.getLongitude() * 1E6));
//        
//        mapController.animateTo(mainone);

        mapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapView);
        capture=(Button) findViewById(R.id.bcapture);

        capture.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
            getMapImage();
            saveMapImage();

            }
        });

        // enable Street view by default
        mapView.setStreetView(false);

        // enable to show Satellite view
        // mapView.setSatellite(true);

        // enable to show Traffic on map
        // mapView.setTraffic(true);
        mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);

        mapController = mapView.getController();
//        mapController.setZoom(16); 
    }
    private Bitmap getMapImage() {  
        /* Position map for output */  
        MapController mc = mapView.getController();  
//        mc.setCenter(SOME_POINT);

Answer 1

Try to use object of MyLocationOverlay class

MyLocationOverlay myLocationOverlay = new MyLocationOverlay(this,mapView);
mapView.getOverlays().add(myLocationOverlay);
myLocationOverLay.enableMyLocation();
myLocationOverlay.runOnFirstFix(new Runnable(){
   public void run(){
      mapView.getController().animateTo(myLocationOverlay.getMyLocation());
   }
});

this will solve your problem
