I have to draw a route between two addresses which are written in two place autocomplete fragments. I searched for it but most code are of onclick event. I have to draw polyline based on the address written in the fragments. Can you give me a general idea on how to write a code for this?
public class MapsActivity extends FragmentActivity implements OnMapReadyCallback {
private GoogleMap mMap;
Context context;
Polyline polyline;
Marker markers;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_maps);
// Obtain the SupportMapFragment and get notified when the map is ready to be used.
SupportMapFragment mapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager()
.findFragmentById(R.id.map);
mapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
PlaceAutocompleteFragment autocompleteFragment = (PlaceAutocompleteFragment)
getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.place_autocomplete_fragment);
autocompleteFragment.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(new PlaceSelectionListener() {
#Override
public void onPlaceSelected(Place place) {
// TODO: Get info about the selected place.
addMarker(place);
// Log.i(TAG, "Place: " + place.getName());
String placeName = place.getName().toString();
}
#Override
public void onError(Status status) {
// TODO: Handle the error.
//Log.i(TAG, "An error occurred: " + status);
}
});
final PlaceAutocompleteFragment autocompleteFragments = (PlaceAutocompleteFragment)
getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.place_autocomplete_fragments);
autocompleteFragments.setOnPlaceSelectedListener(new PlaceSelectionListener() {
#Override
public void onPlaceSelected(Place place) {
// TODO: Get info about the selected place.
addMarker(place);
// Log.i(TAG, "Place: " + place.getName());
String placeName = place.getName().toString();
}
#Override
public void onError(Status status) {
// TODO: Handle the error.
//Log.i(TAG, "An error occurred: " + status);
}
});
}

}
}
In my code, I have added the marker but both the search box are calling one method(addMarker). I guess that's the reason i can't get the polyline between them. I tried make to different method with same code and then add polyline but it did not work.

I'm giving you code for drawing path plus getting driving distance and travel time.

That's it!
Here is the link if you need more explanation.

You need to get the coordinates of your two addresses - Google Maps has an API library that does this. Then follow the guide to draw a polyline on your map at this link. Follow the guides at both links and you should be sorted. Hope this helps.

Use google directions API to get the waypoints between your 2 addresses.There is a Util lib by Google to help you show the "overview_polyline" from the response on the map.

Google Maps Place marker not displaying

I am trying to display locations of places I got using the google maps places api. But the markers of my search results are not showing up on the map. And I can't seem to find the problem.

You may refer this code this will get the relavent places in google map.
Give string input as type like hospital,hotel,policestation,park etc.,
I hope,this may help you.

Android Google Map set country

You can set a bias for your query to prefer one region. Note that this will only prefer the specific region without excluding all other ones.
Based on your query you will have something like this:
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=THEADDRESS&region=XX&sensor=true
XX is the ccTLD code of the region, e.g. sg for Singapore.

NullPointerException on GoogleMaps v2

Updating to API 19 was really annoying. I really had a hard time figuring out on how to deal with the google play services. However, when I run it, this error shows to me.

Fragment Error in Google Maps V2

I am trying to create a tourism app that involves a tab layout and a map. I got my tab layout using fragments and viewpager from androidhive and google map from wptrafficanalyzer. However I am experiencing a lot of errors, and I don't know how to deal with them since this is my first time dealing with fragments. I created my own version of the google maps from android hive, however, I can't integrate it in one of the tabs in my tab layout. Can anyone please help? I'll post the code If you need it. Thanks!
