everything was working fine and out of nowhere my application comes out with this error it doesn't tell me where I don't have how to debug it I don't know what happens
1) Don't load any layouts that have "Mapview" in them.
2) Don't Dim/Enable/Initialize any GoogleMap or MapFragment objects.
3) Don't do MapFrag.IsGooglePlayServicesAvailable
I am looking at other applications and they perfectly control this error but my app for more try cash that I implement and try to manage it simply closes and that's it.
Try running those other apps a few more times, I bet they will also crash. I say this because the first run of my app didn't crash - it would just not show the background map (streets, roads) on that first run. But when I ran my app again, it crashed with the same IDE log error you got.
Hey, if google's own "Maps" app is crashing, you shouldn't feel too bad if your app also crashes.
private Sub ShowMap
Try
Dim Intent1 As Intent
Dim urlMap As String="https://www.google.com/maps/search/"
Dim su As StringUtils
Dim Address As String
Address=lblAddress.Text
Address=Address.Replace(CRLF," ")
Address=su.EncodeUrl(Address,"UTF-8")
urlMap=urlMap & Address
Intent1.Initialize(Intent1.ACTION_VIEW,urlMap)
Intent1.SetComponent("googlemaps")
StartActivity(Intent1)
Catch
Log("ShowMap " & LastException)
modFun.ShowError("ShowMap " & LastException)
End Try
End Sub
Latest status: We believe the crashes of Google Maps SDK have been fixed for iOS. For Android, crash are still happening, and a fix is being worked on with the highest priority. The current ETA for this fix is 48 hours, but we are doing everything we can to speed up the process. Possible workaround: Customers for whom clearing application data is safe can recommend their users clear data for the applications (not just the cache). For Android, multiple developers mentioned a workaround consisting in deleting the ZoomTable.data file directly from their application. After review, this fix seems safe, and you could try it in your application. Please refer to https://issuetracker.google.com/154855417#comment179.
If File.Exist(File.DirInternal, "google_bug") = False Then
File.Delete(File.DirInternal, "ZoomTables.data")
File.WriteString(File.DirInternal, "google_bug", "")
End If
