Simple osmdroid application doesn't work

Question

I'm trying to launch a very simple android application using OpenStreetMaps-Tools for Android, and I have nothing but runtime errors.

Android virtual device: Platform 2.2, API level 8, SD card 1024MiB.

My IDE is IntelliJ Idea 11.

Here is my AndroidManifest.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          package="test.osmdroid005"
          android:versionCode="1"
          android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />
<application
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
    <activity
            android:name=".TestActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
</manifest>

And main.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    >
<org.osmdroid.views.MapView
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:id="@+id/mapview"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:apiKey="(my-google-key)"
        android:clickable="true"
        />
</LinearLayout>

And TestActivity.java:

package test.osmdroid005;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import org.osmdroid.views.MapView;
import test.osmdroid005.R;

public class TestActivity extends Activity
{
    protected MapView mapView;
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        mapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapview);
        mapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
    }
    protected boolean isRouteDisplayed() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return false;
    }
}

Here is error log:

I also included slf4j-1.6.1-jul.jar, osmdroid-android-3.0.7.jar and android.jar(API 8) libraries.

What's wrong? Or what I must add to my project?

When I just starting my application, it says: "Sorry! The application test_osmdroid_005 (process test.osmdroid005) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again". – Bonnes

Answer 1

I'm not familiar with IntelliJ as I use Eclipse but think you have the wrong sl4j jar in your project. You should use slf4j-android-1.5.8.jar I think. You don't need an API key for an Osmdroid maps project - only GoogleMaps requires it.

Below is the smallest Osmdroid sample I have, it's essentially the same as yours, but it centres the map for you to a specific GeoPoint

package osmdemo.demo;

import org.osmdroid.tileprovider.tilesource.TileSourceFactory;
import org.osmdroid.util.GeoPoint;
import org.osmdroid.views.MapController;
import org.osmdroid.views.MapView;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class OsmdroidDemoMap extends Activity {

    private MapView         mMapView;
    private MapController   mMapController;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.osm_main);
        mMapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.mapview);
        mMapView.setTileSource(TileSourceFactory.MAPNIK);
        mMapView.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
        mMapController = mMapView.getController();
        mMapController.setZoom(13);
        GeoPoint gPt = new GeoPoint(51500000, -150000);
        //Centre map near to Hyde Park Corner, London
        mMapController.setCenter(gPt);

    }
}

I've download slf4j-android-1.5.8.jar and changed slf4j-1.6.1-jul.jar to slf4j-android-1.5.8.jar and also deleted the string with key. But I still have the same error. – Bonnes

If you were using Eclipse, I'd suggest you posted the logcat output. I don't know how you do that in IntelliJ though. Try to capture the error log somehow and post it here if you can. – Sita

If it's what I think about...now you can see the error log in post – Bonnes

I edited my answer to show my imports. Your xml is OK, but I don't think you should have that import.test.osmdroid005.R in your source – Sita

Doesn't work. And when I comment the part of XML, which implements mapview, my small project works. And I think, I'm doing something wrong with mapview...maybe, I must include some more jar's? – Bonnes

You have enough jars. SDK Tools rev17 insists that any 3rd party jars go in a folder named libs below the project folder, else you get Class not found runtime errors. I don't know how IntelliJ organises folders but you might like to investigate. See the answer to #9824991 – Sita
