SherlockFragment which contains SupportMapFragment does not open second time

Question

In my app there is one SherlockFragmentActivity, whick has 6 fragments. One of these fragments contains map-fragment.

Problem : Now problem is when I launch an app the map loads successfully, but when I goto other fragment and then again try to load map-fragment it doesn't load and gives errors.

I've also tried to remove view, but it is also not working

Here is my code,

public class SearchMapFragment extends SherlockFragment implements
        OnMyLocationButtonClickListener, ConnectionCallbacks,
        OnConnectionFailedListener, LocationListener,
        OnInfoWindowClickListener, OnMarkerClickListener, OnMapClickListener {

    private static View mView;
    private GoogleMap mMap;

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        if(mView != null){
            ((ViewGroup)mView.getParent()).removeAllViews();
        }

        mView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_search_map, null);   

        if (mMap == null) {

            mf = (SupportMapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragment_searchMap);

            mMap = mf.getMap();
        }   

        return mView;
    }

}

Here is my LogCat,

Answer 1

You are incorrectly adding SupportMapFragment into your fragment.

Please read about nested fragments.

When nesting fragments remember these things:

• use getChildFragmentManager,
• don't add SupportMapFragment in xml.
