How to display AdMob ads in FlashBuilder 4.5.1 mobile project???

[anixan]

Hi,

I am currently developing an application in the latest version of FlashBuilder and I cant seem to find out how I can incorporate AdMob ads or any other Ads into my application. Does anyone know how this can be done? There seen to be a few tutorials online focused on Flash however im not sure how to get those to work in the Flex environment. Thanks

I have been looking at this site which seems to explain how to get it to work for Flash but how would I get this to work in Flash Builder 4.5.1??

You can do it with a native extension - I just finished building one.  With the latest flash builder you can integrate extensions in an automated way, otherwise it's just a matter of including it in your descriptor file and ADT commandline.

Native AdMob AIR 3 Extension for Android just came out.  You can check it out here:

This is a true native java/android extension, not a hack with StageWebView.  It supports creating, destroying, showing and hiding of ads, all the AdMob sizes and formats for phones and tablets, events dispatched for all lifecycle states, etc.  It also smartly handles any changes to stage orientation, and has included sample apps.  You can get your ads inserted with 2 lines of code.

You can also see it in action with our game Aqualux here.
