Retrieving Basemap via HTTPS

lqdeffx — Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:06:06 GMT

I am attempting to connect to my company's GIS web service with no luck. I have made sure my implementation closely follows the tutorial; although, I've been using ESRI's web service for several weeks now. I know our GIS web service works as other teams are using iOS & JavaScript and have had no issues connecting to the same URL. I suspect there is an extra step that I am not finding/understanding in any of the documentation.

Our certificate is officially signed and below is the obstacle. Thanks in advance for the help!

What's the URL of your TiledServiceLayer?

In your onCreate method in java file, do the following code:

// Retrieve the MapView from XML layout.

mMapView = (MapView) findViewById(R.id.map);

// Add a base map layer to the MapView.

mMapView.addLayer(new ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer("your tiled service URL"));

Check this sample if needed.

If it doesn't work, send your code to mguo@esri.com and I'll look into it.

Thanks for the response - my problem was between my keyboard and chair. The service I was attempting to connect to did not support caching.
