Issue
I have followed the tutorial in this page and created a google maps application. Code is the same as it is in this page apart from android target versions. I have set Google APIs version 23 as the target. Below is my manifest.
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.androidhive.googleplacesandmaps"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="11" />
<application
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
<!-- Add Google Map Library -->
<uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps" />
<activity
android:name="com.places.googleplacesandmaps.MainActivity"
android:label="@string/title_activity_main" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<!-- SinglePlaceActivity -->
<activity android:name="com.places.googleplacesandmaps.SinglePlaceActivity" android:label="Place Details">
</activity>
<!-- PlacesMapActivity -->
<activity android:name="com.places.googleplacesandmaps.PlacesMapActivity" android:label="Near Places Map View">
</activity>
</application>
<!-- Internet Permissions -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<!-- Network State Permissions -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<!-- Access Location -->
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-feature android:glEsVersion="0x00020000" android:required="true"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
I referred to certain other questions addressing the same issue, but unlike mentioned there, I have extended the map activity and I have set the Google API instead of Android API. Also I have put the map library in the manifest. What am I doing wrong here. Please advice. Please note that I am running this in my emulator which is Google API23 as well. But I haven't done any special configurations though.
Below is the logcat output.

Solution
You are attempting to use the original version of Google Maps support for Android (com.google.android.maps). We refer to that now as Maps V1.
This will not work, as Maps V1 has been deprecated for over two years. You can no longer get API keys for it, so even if your code would be correct, it would not work. The crash is because the old MapView had to be used inside of a MapActivity, as the error indicates.
The current version of Google Maps support for Android — Maps V2 — has a very different API and does not involve classes in the com.google.android.maps package.
