My code is:
public class MapsLine extends Fragment implements OnMapReadyCallback {
private static final int MY_PERMISSION_REQUEST_ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION = 0;
private FusedLocationProviderClient fusedLocationClient;
private LocationCallback locationCallback;
private boolean requestingLocationUpdates = true;

double latitude;
double longitude;
@Override

getChildFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.map);
supportMapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
}

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
Log.d("MainActivity", "onCreate");
fusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(getActivity());
//callback per gli aggiornamenti di posizione
locationCallback = new LocationCallback() {
@Override
public void onLocationResult(LocationResult locationResult) {
if (locationResult == null) {
Log.d("main_activiyt_maps", "location request is null");
return;
}
//aggiorno i dati nelle textView con le informazioni della posizione aggiornata
for (Location location : locationResult.getLocations()) {
Log.d("Location", "New Location received: " + location.toString());
latitude = location.getLatitude();
longitude=location.getLongitude();
Log.d("main_activiyt_maps", String.valueOf(latitude));
Log.d("main_activiyt_maps", String.valueOf(longitude));

}

requestingLocationUpdates = false;
}

Log.d("MainActivity", "Permessi OK");

startLocationUpdates();
}
}
public boolean checkLocationPermission() {
if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(getContext(), Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
//ho i permessi, scrivo nella casella di testo che va tutto bene
Log.d("Location", "The permission is granted");
return true;
} else {
//non ho i permessi, devo richiederli
Log.d("Location", "Ask for permission");
ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(), new String[]{Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION}, MY_PERMISSION_REQUEST_ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION);
return false;
}
}
@Override

switch (requestCode) {
case MY_PERMISSION_REQUEST_ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION: {
// If request is cancelled, the result arrays are empty.
if (grantResults.length > 0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
// permission was granted
Log.d("Location", "Now the permission is granted");
fusedLocationClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(getActivity());
} else {
// permission was not granted
Log.d("Location", "Permission still not granted");
}
break;
}
}
}
public void getLastKnownLocation() {
if (checkLocationPermission()) {
fusedLocationClient.getLastLocation()
.addOnSuccessListener(getActivity(), new OnSuccessListener<Location>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(Location location) {
// Got last known location. In some rare situations this can be null.
if (location != null) {
Log.d("Location", "Last known location:" + location.toString());
} else {
Log.d("Location", "Last Known location not available");
}
}
});
}
}
//per chiedere la posizione aggiornata
private void startLocationUpdates() {
if (checkLocationPermission()) {
requestingLocationUpdates = true;
LocationRequest locationRequest = LocationRequest.create();
locationRequest.setInterval(1000); //in ms.
locationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);
fusedLocationClient.requestLocationUpdates(locationRequest, locationCallback, Looper.getMainLooper());
}
}
@SuppressLint("MissingPermission")
@Override
public void onMapReady(@NonNull GoogleMap googleMap) {
gMap = googleMap;
gMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
// Add a marker in Sydney and move the camera
LatLng sydney = new LatLng(latitude,longitude);
gMap.addMarker(new MarkerOptions().position(sydney).title("Marker in Sydney"));
gMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(sydney));
gMap.clear(); //clear old markers
}
}
My themanifest code is:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
android:value="my_key" ></meta-data>
in the manifest I have ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION and ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION and in the code I check the permissions(checkLocationPermission()). why does it crash at the first start, when the app asks me for permissions?
>Solution :
In onViewCreated(), you are setting up your SupportMapFragment. In onMapReady(), you are trying to use location information via gMap.setMyLocationEnabled(true);. Do not call setMyLocationEnabled() until the user grants you permission.
