Re: [android-developers] crashing map

I traced it down to this snippet of code... 

for (int j=0; j<gpItems.size();j++){

GeoPoint Y = gpItems.get(j);

OverlayItem overlayPics = newOverlayItem(Y,"","");

          itemizedOverlay.addOverlay(overlayPics);

              Y=null;

}

mapOverlays.add(itemizedOverlay);

Supposedly the populate() is done in the AddOverlay method:

public void addOverlay(OverlayItem overlay) {

    mOverlays.add(overlay);

    populate();

}

I think I'll just have to reformulate all my Overlays classes.

Have you ensured you're calling ItemizedOverlay.populate() before adding the overlay to the map view?

on the map... the only change I've done was to change a .png file for
