[SDL] SDL 2.0 and Interstital Ads

[Timodor]

Hello people not sure if this is in scope I can get Banners ads working fine coming and going. But Interstitial Ads leave me with black screen. This related to SDL?

mInterstitialAd = new InterstitialAd(SDLActivity.this);

setContentView(R.layout.main);

These might be the issues?

Even though I can't answer this question in particular, you are welcome to
check out my own android code where I got them working:
https://github.com/mgerhardy/caveexpress - or the direkt link:
https://github.com/mgerhardy/caveexpress/blob/master/android-project/src/org/base/game/BaseGameAdsActivity.java
(I'm activating them them JNI - so you won't find the calling code on the
java side, but here:
https://github.com/mgerhardy/caveexpress/blob/master/src/modules/common/ports/Android.cpp

Hope this helps.

I end up getting it working, it just came up with trial and error.

I'm using NDK to communicate to Java to tell it when Display the Add or PreCache it.

0 to Cache it, 1 Display it, -1 means it's Cached.

THREAD SAFE

public void ShowInt()
{
runOnUiThread(new Runnable()
{
public void run()
{
reallyShowInt();
}
});
}



private void reallyShowInt()
{
if (inter == 0 ) // NOT CHACHED
mInterstitialAd = new InterstitialAd(SDLActivity.this);

runOnUiThread(new Runnable()
{
public void run()
{

if (inter == 0) // NOT CACHED
{

mInterstitialAd.setAdUnitId("ca-app-pub-3940256099942544/1033173712"); //TEST ADMOB ID


AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder()
//.addTestDevice(AdRequest.DEVICE_ID_EMULATOR)
.build();

mInterstitialAd.loadAd(adRequest);

inter = -1; // DO NOT CACHE AGAIN
}


if (inter == 1) // DISPLAY ADD ASSUME CACHED
{
if (mInterstitialAd.isLoaded())
{
mInterstitialAd.show();
//inter = 0;
}

}
}

});
}

Also needs Global Variables.

InterstitialAd mInterstitialAd;
