Is it possible to show a mapView in a dialog in Android?

Here is my code:

    Dialog dialog = new Dialog(this);
    dialog.setContentView(R.layout.show_info_with_map);
    dialog.setTitle(title);
    dialog.setCancelable(true);
    dialog.show();

show_info_with_map is a layout file with a maoView and some textView. I did added the user-library and extended MapActivty. But I am still getting the following error:

E/AndroidRuntime(23846): android.view.InflateException:

Binary XML file line #108: Error inflating class com.google.android.maps.MapView

Absolutely! Add android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Dialog" to your map activity in the manifest, it comes up as a dialog. You can then control how the dialog appears by tweaking your map activity layout

Show your MapView in MapActivity, just make it look like dialog by applying Theme.Dialog to it.

There's no other way. At least with API v1. You can also take a look at Maps API V2
