Integrate Map in Fragment instead of Activity

Question

I want to add Google Map in a fragment which is inside Main Activity. But I get an error in the below statements.

1. this fusedLocationProviderClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this);

2. getApplicationContext() Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), currentLocation.getLatitude()

3. getSupportFragmentManager() getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.google_map); The same code works in an Activity. As this is coded in a Fragment, what are the changes that should be done?

import android.content.pm.PackageManager;
import android.location.Location;

        fusedLocationProviderClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this);
        fetchLastLocation();
    }

    private void fetchLastLocation() {

            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(getActivity(), new String[]
                    {Manifest.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION}, REQUEST_CODE);
            return;
        }
        Task<Location> task = fusedLocationProviderClient.getLastLocation();
        task.addOnSuccessListener(new OnSuccessListener<Location>() {

                if(location != null){
                    currentLocation = location;
                    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), currentLocation.getLatitude()
                            +""+currentLocation.getLongitude(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    SupportMapFragment supportMapFragment = (SupportMapFragment)
                            getSupportFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.google_map);
                    supportMapFragment.getMapAsync(MapFragment.this);
                }
            }
        });

    }

    @Override
    public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {
        LatLng latLng = new LatLng(currentLocation.getLatitude(), currentLocation.getLongitude());
        MarkerOptions markerOptions = new MarkerOptions().position(latLng).title("I am here.");
        googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latLng));
        googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(latLng, 13));
        googleMap.addMarker(markerOptions);
    }

    @Override
    public void onRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, @NonNull String[] permissions, @NonNull int[] grantResults) {
        switch (requestCode){
            case REQUEST_CODE:
                if(grantResults.length>0 && grantResults[0] == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
                    fetchLastLocation();
                }
                break;
        }
    }

}

Answer 1

Try using getActivity() instead of this here

fusedLocationProviderClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient(this);

and use getActivity() instead of getApplicationContext()

third problem getActivity().getSupportFragmentManager()

Update

Try

fusedLocationProviderClient = LocationServices.getFusedLocationProviderClient((Context)getActivity());

Answer 2

I found this answer. Whoever finds trouble in this can use the below way: Instead of

return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_map, container, false);

I coded as,

View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_map, container, false); 
return v;

and then

1. Instead of using this use getActivity()
2. Instead of getApplicationContext() use v.getApplicationContext()
3. Instead of getSupportFragmentManager() use v.getSupportFragmentManager()
