I am struggling to implement an admob banner into my app because the setContentView() method is used for the surfaceView called gameView so creating the adView in xml cannot be applied to this framework as setContentView is already being used. And I don't know how to do this programmatically. Does anyone have a solution to this?
My main Activity:
public class GameMainActivity extends BaseGameActivity {
....
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
instance = this;
prefs = getPreferences(Activity.MODE_PRIVATE); // New line!
highScore = retrieveHighScore();
highScoreUnits = retrieveHighScoreUnits();
highScoreTens = retrieveHighScoreTens();
highScoreHundreds = retrieveHighScoreHundreds();
muteButton = retrieveMuteButton();
assets = getAssets();
sGame = new GameView(this, GAME_WIDTH, GAME_HEIGHT);
setContentView(sGame);
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON);
}
and my custom surfaceView code
public class GameView extends SurfaceView implements Runnable {
private Bitmap gameImage;
private Rect gameImageSrc;
private Rect gameImageDst;
private Canvas gameCanvas;
private Painter graphics;
private Thread gameThread;
private volatile boolean running = false;
private volatile State currentState;
private InputHandler inputHandler;
public GameView(Context context, int gameWidth, int gameHeight) {
super(context);
gameImage = Bitmap.createBitmap(gameWidth, gameHeight,
Bitmap.Config.RGB_565);
gameImageSrc = new Rect(0, 0, gameImage.getWidth(),
gameImage.getHeight());
gameImageDst = new Rect();
gameCanvas = new Canvas(gameImage);
graphics = new Painter(gameCanvas);
SurfaceHolder holder = getHolder();
holder.addCallback(new Callback() {
@Override
public void surfaceCreated(SurfaceHolder holder) {
initInput();
if (currentState == null) {
setCurrentState(new LoadState());
}
initGame();
}
@Override
public void surfaceChanged(SurfaceHolder holder, int format,
int width, int height) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void surfaceDestroyed(SurfaceHolder holder) {
pauseGame();
}
});
}
