Google Maps Android API v2

Question

I want to implement Google Maps in my application, so I tried this Google Maps v2

but when I take this code:

<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version" />

I get this error:

error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'value' with value '@integer/ google_play_services_version').

I have

• imported the google-play-services.jar
• updated everything in the SDK Manager

after all it still doesn't work, I imported libproject\\google-play-services_lib\\res\\values\\version.xml to my project

this error is away but if I run the project on my device the logcat shows this error message

I have my own API Key and the name of the package is correct. Maybe there is some problem with my eclipse or the android sdk!?

Answer 1

How have you imported it? You have to add google-play-services as a library to your project.

Answer 2

After importing the google-play-services project, you have to add this library project to your application like this-

right click the project --> properties --> Android --> Add --> select google-play-services --> Ok --> Apply --> Ok
