Description

LARSAdController is a singleton class that manages iAds and Google Ads in a single container view. All orientations and devices are supported (Pads and Pods).

Usage

###Single Orientation For single-orientation support for all devices, simply add the following line in your UIViewController:

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated{
    [[LARSAdController sharedManager] addAdContainerToView:[self view] withViewController:self];
    [[LARSAdController sharedManager] setGoogleAdPublisherId:myPublisherId]; //change publisher id unless you want me to have your monies (only once per singleton, though)
}

Multiple Orientations

If you would like to enable support for multiple orientations, add the following when you create and add the container to the view:

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated{
    [[LARSAdController sharedManager] addAdContainerToView:self.view withParentViewController:self];
    [[LARSAdController sharedManager] setGoogleAdPublisherId:myPublisherId]; //this only needs to be called the first time LARSAdController is called
    [[LARSAdController sharedManager] setShouldHandleOrientationChanges:YES];
}

Framework Requirements

In order to compile, you need to include the following Apple frameworks:

1. iAd.framework
2. AudioToolbox.framework
3. MessageUI.framework
4. SystemConfiguration.framework

You will also need the Google AdMob SDK available from Google.

That's it. Technically, this can be added to any UIView that is large enough and managed by a view controller.

Limitations (Maybe this is where you come in?)

2. Support to add ad container to the top of a UIView (so that it slides up instead of down)
3. Support for other animation transitions out of the box
4. Modular support for more ad networks
