I'm try to develop a location based app. I try to draw a route but program returns to me a NullPointerException.
I faced this problem at line 361.

please, debug and make sure you are correctly downloading the file, check the downloadUrl(String strUrl) method and make sure it reaches line 256. i believe the problem is with the download method.

Any kindhearted individual who can help me with this? It has been almost a week since i started this journey. I already passed (MyLocation.this - as reference to the activity) but it still doesnt work... do note my Google API is working fine.
Please help.

This is because you are passing MyLocation to PointsParser and try to cast it to TaskLoadedCallback in this.taskCallback = (TaskLoadedCallback) mContext;, add TaskLoadedCallback to implements in MyLocation
public class MyLocation extends AppCompatActivity implements LocationListener, TaskLoadedCallback {
}

Android How to show route between markers on googlemaps

I'm creating an App that will show the location of the user and put a marker to that position. After the user moves. The marker would be removed and a new marker would be created. Now. I want to make markers on Point A and Point B to be hardcoded into the app and show the route on the map. It shall use the nearest road on the map. I've done some research but only find old code which dated 5 years back. Could anyone be kind enough to guide me through this.
The Point A and Point B is on LocationChanged method.

Clear map markers except the one in my location

I am searching for nearby places to my location on the map. I want the map to clear from markers of a previous search, when I change place category, but the marker of my location to be present always. The "mGoogleMap.clear();" clears all markers, including the one in my location. How can I change that;

you just save the location(latitude and longitude) of the current marker to a temp variable and then clear the map..
You can clear the map like
mGoogleMap.clear();
After clearing the map add a new marker at the temp location...

pls help me
thanks in advance

To change back human readable format, you can also use Geocoder but that is not working sometimes because google play service problem. I used this json geocodeing as second option for in case.
Please refer Google Geocoding API
Workflow is pass your latitude and longitude and get current location. Request url gonna be like this.
String reqURL = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng="+ lat+","+lng +"&sensor=true";
Hopefully, this answer will help you.
public static JSONObject getLocationInfo(double lat, double lng) {
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet("http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng="+ lat+","+lng +"&sensor=true");
HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpResponse response;
StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
try {
response = client.execute(httpGet);
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
InputStream stream = entity.getContent();
int b;
while ((b = stream.read()) != -1) {
stringBuilder.append((char) b);
}
} catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
} catch (IOException e) {
}
JSONObject jsonObject = new JSONObject();
try {
jsonObject = new JSONObject(stringBuilder.toString());
} catch (JSONException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return jsonObject;
}
public static String getCurrentLocationViaJSON(double lat, double lng) {
JSONObject jsonObj = getLocationInfo(lat, lng);
Log.i("JSON string =>", jsonObj.toString());
String currentLocation = "testing";
String street_address = null;
String postal_code = null;
try {
String status = jsonObj.getString("status").toString();
Log.i("status", status);
if(status.equalsIgnoreCase("OK")){
JSONArray results = jsonObj.getJSONArray("results");
int i = 0;
Log.i("i", i+ "," + results.length() ); //TODO delete this
do{
JSONObject r = results.getJSONObject(i);
JSONArray typesArray = r.getJSONArray("types");
String types = typesArray.getString(0);
if(types.equalsIgnoreCase("street_address")){
street_address = r.getString("formatted_address").split(",")[0];
Log.i("street_address", street_address);
}else if(types.equalsIgnoreCase("postal_code")){
postal_code = r.getString("formatted_address");
Log.i("postal_code", postal_code);
}
if(street_address!=null && postal_code!=null){
currentLocation = street_address + "," + postal_code;
Log.i("Current Location =>", currentLocation); //Delete this
i = results.length();
}
i++;
}while(i<results.length());
Log.i("JSON Geo Locatoin =>", currentLocation);
return currentLocation;
}
} catch (JSONException e) {
Log.e("testing","Failed to load JSON");
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}
As my experience, only device generated latitude and longitude will work.
Then call
String currentLocation = getCurrentLocationViaJSON(lat, lng);

please, debug and make sure you are correctly downloading the file, check the downloadUrl(String strUrl) method and make sure it reaches line 256. i believe the problem is with the download method.
