topic Why does adding a layer to a MapView before it has loaded not throw an exception? in ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Android Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-runtime-sdk-for-android-questions/why-does-adding-a-layer-to-a-mapview-before-it-has/m-p/528407#M3588 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I've just spent ages figuring out why my MapView suddenly stopped loading and only showed as a black box. I finally tracked it down to a GraphicsLayer being added before the MapView was loaded. Why is it that this doesn't throw an exception? I can't see any case where someone would actually want their app to continue without any notification from the runtime in the event that this occurs. It also makes it a lot harder to diagnose what is actually going wrong. Is this something that can be improved in a future version?</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 30 Jul 2014 04:08:41 GMT ChrisWhite 2014-07-30T04:08:41Z Why does adding a layer to a MapView before it has loaded not throw an exception? https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-runtime-sdk-for-android-questions/why-does-adding-a-layer-to-a-mapview-before-it-has/m-p/528407#M3588 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I've just spent ages figuring out why my MapView suddenly stopped loading and only showed as a black box.
