How can I add a Hide ad button? - objective-c

Question

I am trying to add a button so the user hide the add, I did this in swift but it seems quite different using objective-c this is the code I am using to display an add
#pragma mark iAd Deligate Methods
-(void)bannerViewDidLoadAd:(ADBannerView *)banner {
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:1];
[banner setAlpha:1];
[UIView commitAnimations];
}
-(void) bannerView:(ADBannerView *)banner didFailToReceiveAdWithError:(NSError *)error {
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:1];
[banner setAlpha:0];
[UIView commitAnimations];
}
I tried using
- (IBAction)hideAd:(id)sender {
[ADBannerView.hidden = YES];
}
But this doesn't work, any ideas? thanks!

Answer 1

ADBannerView is the class. It doesn't have a hidden attribute for you to set to hide all ads. Instead, grab your banner and do this instead:
banner.hidden = YES;
That is, you need a reference to your banner, as opposed to it being passed in in the other two methods. You should keep a reference to the ad when you created it.

Answer 2

The problem is in your hideAd:(id)sender method.
- (IBAction)hideAd:(id)sender {
[ADBannerView.hidden = YES];
}
ADBannerView is the class of your banner, not the banner itself.
The code below should work fine.
Please note: _banner should be replaced with the property name in which you declared your ADBannerView.
- (IBAction)hideAd:(id)sender {
[_banner setHidden: YES];
}
