ListView阻止Admob广告

Question

I have the following XML file which corresponds to a ListActivity:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads"
    android:id="@+id/classview"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <com.google.ads.AdView
        android:id="@+id/adView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        ads:adSize="BANNER"
        ads:adUnitId="xxxx" >
    </com.google.ads.AdView>

    <ListView
        android:id="@android:id/list"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent" />

</LinearLayout>

And I call this Java code from within the ListActivity:

public void setupAd(){
    AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest();
    adRequest.addTestDevice("xxxx");
    AdView adView = (AdView) findViewById(R.id.adView);
    adView.loadAd(adRequest);


}

When I look at the graphical layout of my XML file, it seems to neatly have the ad banner on top of the ListView. However, when I run my actual app, the ListView seems to take up the entire screen, likely blocking the ad. Anyone know what's wrong?

Answer 1

The problem is that your ListView has layout_height="fill_parent".

<ListView
    android:id="@android:id/list"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:layout_weight="1" 
 />

Instead have it wrap_content and use layout_weight="1" to tell it to consume any unused space.
