Getting java.lang.IllegalStateException: You are only allowed to have a single MapView in a MapActivity Exception when using MapView for fragments

[nikhil4coding]

Hi,
Thank you for providing a hack lib for MapView.
My implementation of mapView is successful except that I get an error when I call
getActivity().onBackPressed();
from another fragment(other then map fragment)
Here is a detailed information about the exception I am getting.

App for: Mobile
Version: Android 2.2
Supporting file used: android-support-v13-r6-googlemaps.jar

Senario:

1. I have created a Activity which extends FramentActivity(supported from the lib provided)
2. I have created 2 fragments.
   a. MapFragment - which has its own layout and this layout contains mapview
   b. InformationFragment - which has its own layout and DONOT have mapview. it contains table layout and other stuff
3. I have button in layout for InformationFragment which will call getActivity().onBackPressed();

When I press this button or press back button on the device following is the exception I am getting

Following are the code snapshot on how the things are build

MapFragment -> onCreateView()
....
view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.map_page_layout, container, false);
mapView = (MapView) view.findViewById(R.id.mapview);
....

MapFragment Layout File -> map_page_layout
.....
<com.google.android.maps.MapView
android:id="@+id/mapview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:apiKey=
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:clickable="true"/>
.....

InformationFragment -> BackButton ->

Button backButton = (Button) v.findViewById(R.id.backButton);
backButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        public void onClick(View v) {
            getActivity().onBackPressed();

        }});

Can you please let me know if I am missing something or is it a bug...
Its urgent as I have to meet the deadlines

Thank you
