Google AdMob not working when building for iOS?

I added the Google AdMob Plugin to my Unity game.
On Android the game runs fine and all banners show up. But when Creating the Xcode project for iOS, it wont build:

Errors:
GADURequest.h:5:9: 'GADRequest.h' file not found
GADUBanner.m:9:9: 'GADAdMobExtras.h' file not found

Is this a problem with Unity or the Google AdMob SDK? What's the trick to make this work?
BTW: Those files don't exist anywhere in the AdMob plugin for Unity...

 

Did you follow the steps here

https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-plugins/tree/master/unity

Especially - "Add the Google Mobile Ads iOS SDK library." and the various frameworks.

 

Yeah, I tried that. That fixed the missing header errors but got me drowning in linker errors. So far I haven't able to fix those...

 

I'll be testing out my admob project on iOS this week so I'll let you know how it goes.

 

That would be great. Thanks a lot!

 

Hmm I followed those steps and only got one linker error. That was fixed by following these instructions:-

http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/538363/error-when-i-updated-to-xcode-5-to-get-import-to-i.html

Make sure you're adding all the frameworks correctly, and adding the google ads folder to your project (in xCode). If you still get errors post them here and I can try and see what's causing them.

 

These are the errors:

Undefined symbols for architecture armv7:
"_OBJC_CLASS_$_EKEvent", referenced from:
objc-class-ref in libGoogleAdMobAds.a(GADOpener.o)
"_OBJC_CLASS_$_EKEventEditViewController", referenced from:
objc-class-ref in libGoogleAdMobAds.a(GADOpener.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture armv7
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I'm not sure what to make of those. Looks like EventKit (?). But that's not required by Google...

 

I guess try adding eventkit and eventkitui

Although I don't think I did. I'll check next time I'm near the Mac.

 

Boom, nailed it :-D

I don't know why Google docs did not mention that, but this fixed it.
Thanks a bunch, mate!

 

I definitely didn't add those, so something else must have. How odd. Oh well, I'm glad it's fixed!

 

google did it
https://developers.google.com/mobil...s/quick-start#manually_using_the_sdk_download

 

Dear all,

I have add all lib required but still had the problem: "GADRequest.h file not found."
Could you please help me in this issue?

Thanks so much!!!

 

It took me a lot of time making this work as well so I've made some notes, let me share it with everyone:
1. Download the GoogleMobileAdsSdkiOS-6.12.2 instead of the new 7.0 one, after extracting right click on your project in XCode -> Add to Files ... -> Select the GoogleMobileAdsSdkiOS-6.12.2 folder (Tick Copy items as needed)
2. Download and include the GooglePlayGames.bundle and gpg.framework from the gpg-cpp-sdk (C++ SDK) and not the ones found in GooglePlayGames-iOS-SDK.*
3. Include the Libraries mentioned in step 3 here:
https://developers.google.com/mobil...s/quick-start#manually_using_the_sdk_download
4. Make sure target development is ios7.0
5. Add to Linked Libraries
- GoogleMobileAdsSdkiOS-6.12.2/libGoogleAdMobAds.a
- GoogleOpenSource.framework
- GooglePlus.bundle
- GooglePlus.framework
- GooglePlayGames.bundle
- gpg.framework
6. Add the following to Copy Bundle Resources:
- GooglePlayGames.bundle
- GooglePlus.bundle
7. Add -ObjC to Linker Flags
8. Build

Edit: Please note that this is my setup when i'm using both Admob and Google Play.

 

Thanks for this
But could you please give me the link to download GoogleMobileAdsSdkiOS-6.12.2? I couldnt find it anywhere to download

Thanks in advanced

 

Sure thing.

Current version of Unity Plugin seems to be not compatible with new version (7.0) of google's mobile ads ios sdk released on 2015-02-03. You can see in the release notes (https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/rel-notes#ios) that one of the points is:
"Replaced GADAdMobExtras and DFPExtras with a single GADExtras class.".
That's the reason for GADAdMobExtras.h file not found error.

cybervaldez's solution works (and thanks for that bro), but it's more like a workaround since it relies on downgrading version of library.
Real solution would be updating Unity Plugin to work with version 7.0 of googles mobile ads sdk, but as far as i know such update is not yet available.

 

I found solution that works without downgrading the library: https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-plugins/issues/68

Thanks to clever guy, who fixed plugin. After all, it was very small incompatibility. I dont understand why we still havent official update. But in any case, it works.

 

i have this monstrosity! Xcode 6.1.1, unity 4.6.2, latest Admob plugins, (all the) frameworks, librarys, sdk's ...


Thanks for any help provided.

 

Does anyone know when the Unity Plugin will work with version 7.0 of googles mobile ads sdk

 

I found similar issue using latest admob plugin sdk version 7.0. I have uploaded image that demonstrate some what my xcode log details.

If I change my admob sdk version to 6.9.2 then it works perfectly on same project.

I am using Unity 4.5.5p3 version to create for xCode build. Also I have used xCode 6.1 installed.
I have tried above all post content in my project but didn't get success in that.

Please give some suggestion where I was doing wrong.

 

did you know they updated admob unity plug to v2.2 over at git like yesterday?

its so funny when i spend a night try to fix the admob wouldnt go with sdk7 problem, then when i finally fixed it to work with sdk 7(some work around from net) and submit my build yesterday, i found out they hav finally updated the unity admob plugin to go with sdk 7, what a waste of my night!!

 

You need add frameworks of all in this list

Hi every body i removed the cocoa pods using

I downloaded the google ad mob plugin from 7.7 and then integrate it manually in the iOS project it is working perfect now.
