Using SupportMapFrament in a two pane layout gives duplicate layout error?

Google Maps for Android API v2 doesn't work on the emulator out of the box at this point in time. It may work with a bit of setting up YMMV, see - This app won't run unless you update Google Play Services. (via Bazaar) .

Your best option is to test on a real device until Google fixes the issue. Please star the bug - http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=4627.

I finally found the correct fix for this. Since I was using maps in a Fragment in a two pane layout; I had to programmatically construct the map instead of defining in xml. This is demonstrated in the maps example ProgrammaticDemoActivity in android SDK (googleplayservices).

Below is excerpt from the example, this is called from onCreateView when called from a Fragment (or onCreate if you're calling from an Activity).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
