Default How to embed a KML map file and show in a mapview ?

It would be great if someone would do a tutorial on loading a mapview from a KML file of google mymap .

Thank you,

Thank you,
that might be more complex than you think. The problem is that there is no native method to show a "path". So you have these elements:

1) parse the KML file
2) make a map kit overlay that knows how to draw the path
3) put this overlay over your map kit view.

The closest to that (without 1) is the Breadcrumbs sample from WWDC 2010 which I used as basis for my app GeoCorder.
