How to get Google Maps object inside a Fragment

Question

I am using fragments in my application and I am new for this. There is a fragment in which I want to display Google Map and want to get its object, for this I have a fragment in

Answer 1

public class MapActivity extends FragmentActivity
      implements OnMapReadyCallback { }
Then, while initializing the map, use getMapAsync() instead of getMap():


//call this method in your onCreateMethod
 private void initializeMap() {
  if (mMap == null) {
    SupportMapFragment mapFrag = (SupportMapFragment) getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_map);
    mapFrag.getMapAsync(this);
  }
}

@Override
public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
    mMap = googleMap;

}

You can use this to making map but it will return map object is null because you don't find solution with getMapAsync to create a new object mMap. It only background task with return null
