The Client-side tvOS SDK has changed very little with the v4 release. The
primary change is the addition of IMAAdDisplayContainer, as seen in the iOS
SDK.
This guide walks through the process required to upgrade an existing v3
implementation to the new v4 SDK.
Change the module name
To match the iOS SDK, we've changed the module name from
ClientSideInteractiveMediaAds to GoogleInteractiveMediaAds, so you should
make the following changes.
| Changes |
| Old |
#import <ClientSideInteractiveMediaAds/ClientSideInteractiveMediaAds.h>
@import ClientSideInteractiveMediaAds;
|
| New |
#import <GoogleInteractiveMediaAds/GoogleInteractiveMediaAds.h>
@import GoogleInteractiveMediaAds;
|
Create the new ad container
| Create and pass in an IMAAdDisplayContainer |
| Old |
IMAAdsRequest *adsRequest =
[[IMAAdsRequest alloc] initWithAdTagUrl:kAdTagUrlString
adDisplayContainer:self.videoView
contentPlayhead:self.contentPlayhead
userContext:userContext];
|
| New |
self.adDisplayContainer =
[[IMAAdDisplayContainer alloc] initWithAdContainer:self.videoView];
IMAAdsRequest *adsRequest =
[[IMAAdsRequest alloc] initWithAdTagUrl:kAdTagUrlString
adDisplayContainer:self.adDisplayContainer
contentPlayhead:self.contentPlayhead
userContext:userContext];
