Is it legal to display VE images in other applications? For google tiles it's
not, so
I won't include it in the official code.

MapCruncher can produce Quadkey-organized tiles from any data source, without
using VE
images, so if you can build in support for generic URLs passing the quadkey as
part of
the URL for the tile, that would allow custom maps created by MapCruncher.

I have included the quadTree support but not the VE URLs. In future the info
will not
be stored in an enum but in a sqlite database. Users can then supply their own
schemes.

It is possible to support Bing Map only extending the OnlineTileSourceBase
class (and implementing IStyledTileSource) in order to use Bing Map REST, the
use the setTileSource method of the MapView to switch on this tile source.

I've spent the last week or so struggling to incorporate Bing Maps, but without
success. There are some similarities in the API, but not enough to make it
really compatible with osmdroid/Google.

This is code to support Bing Map.
It is not integrated to the lib but it should be included in your project or
additional lib.
This is a sample use:
// init the BingMapTileSource
try
{
BingMapTileSource.initMetaData(BING_MAP_KEY);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Log.e(TAG, e.getMessage());
}
// create an instance of BingMapTileSource using French labels
BingMapTileSource tileSource = new BingMapTileSource("BingMap","en-US");
mapView.setTileSource(tileSource);
((IStyledTileSource) mapView.getTileProvider().getTileSource()).setStyle(BingMapTileSource.IMAGERYSET_ROAD);

Attachments:
Thank's for this patch. It seems you've used the tiles directly rather than
using the SDK.
Please do not add any more comments to this issue and use issue 236 instead.
A couple of comments (t ocarry forward to issue 236):
1. You could get the key from the manifest the same as the CloudMade key.
2. How does this fit with the Bing license?
3. Couldn't you extend QuadTreeTileSource instead of OnlineTileSourceBase?
