Java Question Banner cannot be cast to android.view.View

[Douglas Farias]

Hi all.

I'm trying to use the Display io SDK to make a library.
I've already managed to do all the interstitial part, but now in the banner I got to a part that I don't know how to follow.

public void onLoaded(Ad ad) {
    switch (adUnitType){
        case "BANNER" :{
            try {
                BannerPlacement bannerPlacement = (BannerPlacement) Controller.getInstance().getPlacement(placementId);
                View bannerView = bannerPlacement.getBanner(BannerAndMediumRectangleActivity.this, adRequest.getId());
                adLayout.addView(bannerView);
                adLayout.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            } catch (DioSdkException e) {
                Log.e(TAG, e.getLocalizedMessage());
            }
            break;
        }

I m already get the onLoaded event, but i dont know how transform a banner to view.

Sub adLoadBanner_Event (MethodName As String, Args() As Object) As Object
    Log(MethodName) '= onLoaded
    Log(Args.Length) '= 1
    If MethodName = "onLoaded" Then
        Private v As View = Args(0) '< CRASH HERE
    Else if MethodName = "onFailedToLoad" Then
        Log("error: " & Args(0))
    End If
    Return Null
End Sub

The code above cause a crash, here is the log.

*** Service (starter) Create ***

what would be the correct way to transform the banner into a view?

Here is the java example

AndroidSample/app/src/main/java/com/brandio/androidsample/BannerAndMediumRectangleActivity.java at master · displayio/AndroidSample

Sample Android app demonstrating Display.io monetization SDK - displayio/AndroidSample

github.com

And here is this part on the sdk tutorial

Banner (320x50)

Before You Start Make Sure: App and Placement set up on Publisher Portal SDK is installed SDK is initialized Each Ad request has "Testing" status which enables it to test integrations. ...

support.display.io

Edit: I've already tried get it as javaobject and later add it to activity, but show me the same log....

Thank you!

I don't see any onLoaded event here: https://support.display.io/hc/en-us/articles/360010246199-Banner-320x50-
