Setting up Google Maps API V2

Josh Weaver edited this page Sep 22, 2013 · 1 revision

To use Google Maps with the application, you will need to first setup an API with google to be used. To do this, you can follow the following link:

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android/start

Once you have an API Key, you should create your own mapkeys.xml file inside of "AndroidMissionControl>src>res>values". It should look similar to:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>

    <item type="string" name="googlemaps_windows_debug_key">ENTER API HERE</item>
    <item type="string" name="googlemaps_windows_release_key">ENTER API HERE</item>
    <item type="string" name="googlemaps_linux_debug_key">ENTER API HERE</item>
    <item type="string" name="googlemaps_linux_release_key">ENTER API HERE</item>

</resources>

NOTE: You only need the debug key for either windows or linux, depending on which one you are using.
