Request banner ad programmatically

There are two ways to show banner ads. The first one is to request a banner ad and add it to the view hierarchy programatically.

We are expecting an empty container for an ad view. Let’s use simple FrameLayout as a container for a banner ad you wish to load. This FrameLayout can be described in xml file like this:

<FrameLayout android:id="@+id/frame"
	android:layout_width="match_parent"
	android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

Important: We remove all views from the container during loading and refreshing ads. So please do not add any views to the container to avoid unexpected behavior.

Add the following code to your java class corresponding this xml layout:

FrameLayout container = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.frame);
page.getBannerAd("testbanner", container, new MpsAdListener() {

	@Override
	public void onAdFailedToLoad(@NonNull MPSError mpsError) {
		super.onAdFailedToLoad(mpsError);
	}

});

Also you can pass additional ad targeting as second parameter to getBannerAd function:

FrameLayout container = (FrameLayout) findViewById(R.id.frame);
Map<String, String> additionalTargeting = new HashMap<>();
additionalTargeting.put("key", "value");
page.getBannerAd("testbanner", additionalTargeting, container, new MpsAdListener() {

	@Override
	public void onAdFailedToLoad(@NonNull MPSError mpsError) {
		super.onAdFailedToLoad(mpsError);
	}

});

Result

Congratulations, you’ve successfully made your banner ad request programatically!
