I am trying to call moveCamera and my App is crashing. I am receiving a latlng from an Intent extra. I know the extra is coming throungh because I print it updates an edittext. I have tried entering different coordinates myself and nothingis working. Here is my error

And here is my map activity where I call the movecamera

//onResume Method check which fragment intent is sent from

@Override

protected void onResume() {

    super.onResume();



    //make sure extras are not null

    Bundle extras = getIntent().getExtras();

    if (extras != null) {

        this.receiveData();

        Toast.makeText(this, "Received Data", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();



    }

}



private void receiveData() {

    //RECEIVE DATA VIA INTENT

    Intent i = getIntent();



    if(i != null)

    {

        LatLng locationOne = i.getParcelableExtra("LOC_ONE");

        LatLng locationTwo = i.getParcelableExtra("LOC_TWO");



        Toast.makeText(this, "LocOne = " + locationOne + ", LocTwo = " + locationTwo, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

        //SET DATA TO TEXTVIEWS

        locOne.setText(locationOne.toString());

        locTwo.setText(locationTwo.toString());

        // move camera to location one

        Log.d(TAG, "receiveData: calling moveCamera");







        //Map Crashes when trying to move camera

        mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(locationOne,15));

    }

}

And my MoveCamera function

private void moveCamera(LatLng latLng, float zoom){

    Log.d(TAG, "moveCamera: moving the camera to: lat: " + latLng.latitude + ", lng: " + latLng.longitude );

    mMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(latLng, zoom));

}

This is my first android app so any help is appreciated!

it obviously crashes, because mMap is NULL.

if(this.getIntent() != null && mMap != null) {

    ...

}

just had a closer look; you need to handle the intent onMapReady():

@Override

public void onMapReady(GoogleMap map) {



    this.mMap = map;



    if(this.getIntent() != null && this.getIntent().getAction() == INTENT_ACTION_LOCATION_SELECT) {

        /* your code goes here */

    } else {

        /* regular initialization */

    }

}

where onResume() would possibly need to obtain the map from the SupportMapFragment.

You're calling moveCamera inside the function itself besides why do you need your own function when there is a built in function to do so. mMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(place.getLatLng(), 15.0f));
