ArcGis for Android Beginner

Question

I have the following activity called activity_esri_map:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="com.example.stevecortis.wmsdemo.MainActivity">

<com.esri.android.map.MapView
    android:id="@+id/arcMap"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    mapoptions.MapType="Topo"
    mapoptions.ZoomLevel="13"
    mapoptions.center="33.666354, -117.903557" />

This is called from the MainActivity:

final MapOptions mStreetsBasemap = new MapOptions(MapOptions.MapType.STREETS);

private MapView arcMapView;


@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_esri_map);
    arcMapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.arcMap);
    arcMapView.setMapOptions(mStreetsBasemap);
}

From the MainActivity I haven't been able to change anything from tha map. It seems like the findViewById(R.id.arcMap) It is not being assigned to the arcMapView.

I have tried to change other things such as Scale, and nothing seems to affect the actual MapView.

You are setting the MapView's MapOptions twice, first in the layout through the mapoptions. parameter settings then in code with arcMapView.setMapOptions(mStreetsBasemap);. With both of these set you should see the Topo Basemap which is coming from your layout View. You should remove arcMapView.setMapOptions(mStreetsBasemap); from your source. If you want the Streets basemap set it in you layout view, e.g. mapoptions.MapType="STREETS".
