Detect and animate to user location

Last exercise "Implement LocationSource and LocationListener for Google Maps Android API v2" to detect user location. We can modify onLocationChanged() method to animate to updated user location; such that the GoogleMap will always center on user location.

 @Override
public void onLocationChanged(Location location) {
if (myLocationListener != null) {
myLocationListener.onLocationChanged(location);

double lat = location.getLatitude();
double lon = location.getLongitude();

tvLocInfo.setText(
"lat: " + lat + "\n" +
"lon: " + lon);

LatLng latlng= new LatLng(location.getLatitude(), location.getLongitude());
myMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(latlng));

}
}
