Working on an app which gets location markers from a database with json output. I can see the json output in the LogCat. When i tried to use the AsyncTask to add these markers by its self depening on how many items there were in the database i get an FC.
MapsActivity:
public class MapsActivity extends Activity {
private MainMapFragement mapFragment;
private HashMap<Marker, EventInfo> eventMarkerMap;
private LatLng mPosition;
Geocoder geocoder;
String bestProvider;
List<Address> user = null;
double lat, lng;
LatLng latLng;
private ProgressDialog pDialog;
JSONParser jParser = new JSONParser();
ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> productsList;
private static String url_all_products = "http://000100023.host56.com/db_all.php";
// JSON Node names
private static final String TAG_SUCCESS = "success";
private static final String TAG_PRODUCTS = "locations";
private static final String TAG_PID = "id";
private static final String TAG_NAME = "name";
// products JSONArray
JSONArray products = null;
