Android SDK: can't open map in emulator

MariusGächter — Tue, 14 May 2013 11:35:53 GMT

Dear all,
I have an app with one activity, which contains a viewflipper with multiple "subviews".
the app runs like a charm in the emulator until I open the "subview" with the MapView.
I get the following error:
FATAL EXCEPTION: GLThread 78
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No configs match configSpec
at com.esri.android.map.MapSurface$a.chooseConfig(Unknown Source)
at android.opengl.GLSurfaceView$EglHelper.start(GLSurfaceView.java:1024)
at android.opengl.GLSurfaceView$GLThread.guardedRun(GLSurfaceView.java:1401)
at android.opengl.GLSurfaceView$GLThread.run(GLSurfaceView.java:1240)

Thanks for your help.
Cheers

Have you read this blog about setting up the emulator?
http://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2012/05/02/arcgis-runtime-sdk-for-android-v1-1-supports-android-emulator/

This really helped me when I was struggling with that same issue.

I really wish ESRI would mention this in the requirements or readme somewhere

Great point, I have made note of it. Please don't hesitate to submit ideas like this to ArcGIS Ideas.

Bump. Me too. I spent a lot of time debugging this to find out that the GPU emulator stuff mentioned in the blog fixed it.

We have an emulator doc and will support x86 emulator in the upcoming 10.2 SDK release.

Is the doc available? Cannot find it and my x86 emulator cannot open maps (10.2.3)

EMULATOR.txt file is located in the local SDK download under [arcgis-android-install-dir]/tools/EMULATOR.txt.
