title: Android Rotating MapView
body: <p>I am creating an application which trakcs down users path on a mapview. What I want to achieve when user takes a left turn for instance map should rotate it self in such a way that the head of the mapview should always point to upward direction. I hope that makes sense.</p>
  
  <p>I came across Mr. Romain Guy's post an he says </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>I have done this in the past and it
    requires to create a custom ViewGroup
    that rotates the Canvas in the
    dispatchDraw() method. You also need
    to increase the size of the MapView
    (so that it draws enough pixels when
    rotated.) You will also need to rotate
    the touch events in
    dispatchTouchEvent(). Or if you use
    Android 3.0 you can simply call
    theMapView.rotate() :</p>

  <p>Does anyone came accross some solution similiar to my question ? A working example would be excellent :)</p>
