copied!<p>I'm done creating an android program that adds a marker to a location. But I need to show CURRENT MY LOCATION in the MAP. I know this is done thru location based services but I don't know how to incorporate it into my program</p> <p>Here is my onCreate command <pre><code> public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.main);</p> <pre><code> //map mapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapView); //zoom LinearLayout zoomLayout = (LinearLayout)findViewById(R.id.zoom); View zoomView = mapView.getZoomControls(); zoomLayout.addView(zoomView, new LinearLayout.LayoutParams( LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT, LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT)); mapView.displayZoomControls(true); //Philippines coordinate mc = mapView.getController(); String coordinates[] = {"10.952566007", "121.78921587"}; double lat = Double.parseDouble(coordinates[0]); double lng = Double.parseDouble(coordinates[1]); p = new GeoPoint((int) (lat * 1E6), (int) (lng * 1E6)); mc.animateTo(p); mc.setZoom(6); mapOverlay = new MapOverlay(); listOfOverlays = mapView.getOverlays(); listOfOverlays.clear(); listOfOverlays.add(mapOverlay); mapView.invalidate(); } </code></pre> <p></pre></code></p> <p>I have an onTouchEvent that places the marker. So no problem there, the problem is I need to display my location at the start of the program. It should show a mark that says, "You are here" or something like that in the map. </p> <p>p.s: I think I need to change the hardcoded point to my current location point, but i don't know how to do that :| </p>
