Could not find Class exception Android

I am working with two seperate classes one of which has some buttons and the other opens google maps and I am doing an overlay on it. If anyone could see the problem with my intent to open the Map.class let me know. I will throw in my error messages and code.

package com.state.park;

If you are in some where activity and you want to display a map and it gives the above mentioned error, then it is due to missing of this line of code in android.manifest, so put this code and get ride from an error.

     <application
           .......
     <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" /> //this is your required code
     <activity
        .....           
     </activity>
    </application>

Had the same problem and solved by adding this into AndroidManifest.xml between application tags

<application
       ...
       ... >
**<uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" />**
<activity .... />
</application>

It may be one of the following reasons in order of probability (and therefore inverse order of rarity)

AndroidManifest.xml problems. <activity> tags, <uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" /> declaration in the <application> section, etc.
Setup problems: adding the maps.jar files manually as well as setting the project type to use Google APIs. This cause problems for some reason.
Finally, you calling activity may be inheriting some class that causes this problem. I had the same problem calling a MapActivity from a class that used the droidFu API. The calling activity used droidFu's BetterActivity inheritance. I only got the map to work after I changed the MapActivity to BetterMapActivity from the droidFu API.
