GoogleMobileAds Framework Reference

AI-generated Key Takeaways

• GADCustomEventBanner is deprecated and developers should use GADMediationBannerAd and GADMediationAdapter instead.

• This protocol was previously used for banner custom event handlers in Google Mobile Ads mediation.

• The protocol included methods for initialization, requesting banner ads with parameters, and reporting results to a delegate.

• Developers should migrate to the newer mediation APIs for improved functionality and support.

GADCustomEventBanner

Deprecated

Use GADMediationBannerAd and GADMediationAdapter instead.

@protocol GADCustomEventBanner <NSObject>

The banner custom event protocol. Your banner custom event handler must implement this protocol.

• delegate

  Deprecated

  Use GADMediationBannerAd and GADMediationAdapter instead.

  Inform |delegate| with the custom event execution results to ensure mediation behaves correctly.

  In your class, define the -delegate and -setDelegate: methods or use “@synthesize delegate”. The Google Mobile Ads SDK sets this property on instances of your class.

  Declaration

  Swift

  weak var delegate: (any GADCustomEventBannerDelegate)? { get set }

  Objective-C

  @property (nonatomic, weak, nullable) id<GADCustomEventBannerDelegate> delegate;

• -init

  Deprecated

  Use GADMediationBannerAd and GADMediationAdapter instead.

  Returns an initialized custom event banner.

  Declaration

  Swift

  init()

  Objective-C

  - (nonnull instancetype)init;

• -requestBannerAd:parameter:label:request:

  Deprecated

  Use GADMediationBannerAd and GADMediationAdapter instead.

  Called by mediation when your custom event is scheduled to be executed. Report execution results to the delegate.

  Declaration

  Swift

  func requestAd(_ adSize: AdSize, parameter serverParameter: String?, label serverLabel: String?, request: CustomEventRequest)

  Objective-C

  - (void)requestBannerAd:(GADAdSize)adSize
                parameter:(nullable NSString *)serverParameter
                    label:(nullable NSString *)serverLabel
                  request:(nonnull GADCustomEventRequest *)request;
