IAds Working Code Sample

Questions
1

Does anyone know of any working programs with Iads, all of the tutorials have deprecated functions.

2

here is my iAd add on: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ct6clt8mwm8gt06/AAAdFS12AquUZOz8fJ2ULTbra

3

Do I have to modify the app delegate files?

4

When I compile your code after adding the two files to my project I get 2 errors.

Undefined symbols for architecture i386:
“OBJC_CLASS$_ADBannerView”, referenced from:
objc-class-ref in IAdsAddOn.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

@austinmccoy, i think you are adding them wrong. Try following the instructions here: http://codea.io/talk/discussion/4221/objective-c-libraries-testflight-gamecenter-location-twitterfacebookcamera-roll-sharing-more#Item_74 on how to add add-ons to xcode

6

I am still getting the same error. I have modified the app delegate files correctly to. Any Ideas?

7

Would you be able to make a sample program with your addon? I could also upload my code if you needed.

8

EDIT: I fixed it. I had forgotten to add the framework in. Silly me.

9

Now i am getting the error: Cannot call global showAdFromTop()

10

Did you make sure you properly registered the add on to Codea?

11

I believe so.

All I did was add:

self.IAdsAddOn = [[IAdsAddOn alloc] init];
[self.viewController registerAddon:self.IAdsAddOn];

to AppDelegate.mm

and

#import "IAdsAddOn.h" (At Top of Script)

@property (strong, nonatomic) IAdsAddOn * IAdsAddOn;

to AppDelegate.h

12

I think you can’t reuse a variable name. try this:

self.iAdsAddOn = [[IAdsAddOn alloc] init];
[self.viewController registerAddon: self.iAdsAddOn];

and

#import "IAdsAddOn.h" (At Top of Script)

@property (strong, nonatomic) IAdsAddOn *iAdsAddOn;

if not something else wrong and I’ll dig out my files to show you :slight_smile:

13

Thank you so much for helping me, sorry if I am an inconvenience. :slight_smile:

14

Yeah, I am still receiving that same error. Would you mind showing me what you have?

15

Yeah, I cannot find the error.

16

@JakAttak Isn’t that the exact same code…?

Here are my app delegate files:

Just take out the parts for the add-ons you don’t need.

@SkyTheCoder, no I changed some capitals to lower case :slight_smile:

Thanks, i’m no longer receiving the errors. But no ads will show.

It prints “2014-08-15 18:23:38.849 Faller[225:60b] Ads should not be shown right now” in the console on my mac even though I am calling showAdFromTop() in my setup function. What is happening?

Here is the full console:

014-08-15 18:25:09.662 Faller[233:60b] iAdAddOn Registering Functions

2014-08-15 18:25:11.147 Faller[233:60b] Banner View loaded Ads for display.

Have you called hideAd anywhere?
