Adding markers to a map
suggest changeTo add markers to a Google Map, for example from an ArrayList
of MyLocation
Objects, we can do it this way.
The MyLocation
holder class:
public class MyLocation {
LatLng latLng;
String title;
String snippet;
}
Here is a method that would take a list of MyLocation
Objects and place a Marker for each one:
private void LocationsLoaded(List<MyLocation> locations){
for (MyLocation myLoc : locations){
mMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions()
.position(myLoc.latLng)
.title(myLoc.title)
.snippet(myLoc.snippet)
.icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.defaultMarker(BitmapDescriptorFactory.HUE_MAGENTA));
}
}
Note: For the purpose of this example, mMap
is a class member variable of the Activity, where we’ve assigned it to the map reference received in the onMapReady()
override.
