Android Question Google maps - Manifest Error

[atiaust]

Hi all,

I have been trying for days to get google maps working with B4A V6.30.

I have followed all the tutorials that I can find but still no joy.

The latest error is:
AndroidManifest.xml:27: error: Error parsing XML: not well-formed (invalid token)

I guess this is to do with the manifest changes I made. I haven't attempted to change the manifest before and am unsure if this is correct.

'This code will be applied to the manifest file during compilation.
'You do not need to modify it in most cases.
'See this link for for more information: https://www.b4x.com/forum/showthread.php?p=78136
AddManifestText(
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="5" android:targetSdkVersion="19"/>
<supports-screens android:largeScreens="true"
    android:normalScreens="true"
    android:smallScreens="true"
    android:anyDensity="true"/>
<meta-data
    android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
    android:value="AIzaSyDlvxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"/>   
<activity android:name="com.google.android.gms.common.api.GoogleApiActivity"
  android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"
  android:exported="false"/>
<meta-data
  android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
  android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />   
    )
SetApplicationAttribute(android:icon, "@drawable/icon")
SetApplicationAttribute(android:label, "$LABEL$")
'End of default text.

Any help gratefully appreciated.

Don't use MS Edge to copy code snippets from the forum. It adds a special space instead of the standard space. This issue is fixed for the next version of B4A.

Hi Erel,

Is there a work around or can I edit the file with Notepad ++ to fix ?

You will need to delete it and copy it again from the forum: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/google-maps.63930/
