If you mean that you want it to update automatically as the user's
position changes, then you gotta use "Intent".
First call MapView.requestUpdate();
Then register IntentReceiver();
here is some code
static Intent gpsIntent = null;
static IntentReceiver gpsIntentReceiver = null;
static IntentFilter gpsIntentFilter = null;
gpsIntent = new Intent("GPS_ACTION");
locationManager =
(LocationManager)this.getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE);
gpsIntentReceiver = new IntentReceiver()
{
public void onReceiveIntent(Context context, Intent intent)
{
Location l = (Location) intent.getExtra("location");
// do something with new location
}
};
gpsIntentFilter = new IntentFilter();
gpsIntentFilter.addAction("GPS_ACTION");
// register IntentReceiver
this.registerReceiver(gpsIntentReceiver, gpsIntentFilter);
