i have indeed launched MyMapActivity the canonical way, and it works
fine ! ... sorry about the mistakes ...
the think is that I need to show a map in a Tab and since the only way
of running a MapView is through the MapActivity, that seemed to be the
only viable option... i'm open to other suggestions ...
let me straighten the code ...
TabHost.TabSpec tab2= tabs.newTabSpec("tab2");
tab2.setContent(new Intent(this, MyMapActivity.class));
tab2.setIndicator("tab2",getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.drawable2));
tabs.addTab(tab2);
that's it!
Thanks ...
