Google Maps Android API - trigger touch event on map

Question

I need a way to trigger/fire a map touch event programmatically. Is there any solution?

Update 1:

I have map and a kmlLayer on it. the kmlLayer has only a click event but in my case I need to fire this event when I click on another button. it's exactly what I want.

According to this answer I add a fake and programmatically touch event but it not worked on a map view!

Update 2:

My question is totally different with Google Maps Android API v2 - detect touch on map. Because it is about how to interact when a real touch happend but in my case I want to fire event programmaticly first! after this the map or laye listener.

Answer 1

you can try this...

googleMap.setOnCameraMoveStartedListener(new GoogleMap.OnCameraMoveStartedListener() {
    @Override
    public void onCameraMoveStarted(int reason) {
        if (reason == REASON_GESTURE) {
            // The user gestured on the map.
        } else if (reason == REASON_API_ANIMATION) {
            // The user tapped something on the map.
        } else if (reason == REASON_DEVELOPER_ANIMATION) {
            // The app moved the camera.
        }
    }
});
