Add binding for com.google.android.libraries.ads.mobile.sdk:ads-mobile-sdk (GMA Next-Gen SDK) by Copilot · Pull Request #1436 · dotnet/android-libraries

Copilot · 2026-06-03T16:00:53Z

Adds a new binding for Google's GMA Next-Gen SDK (com.google.android.libraries.ads.mobile.sdk:ads-mobile-sdk:1.1.1), the documented migration target from the legacy Google Mobile Ads SDK. This is a new groupId, distinct from com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads*, so it gets its own config.json entry and source folder.

Binding registration

config.json: new artifact entry, nugetId Xamarin.GoogleAndroid.Libraries.Ads.Mobile.Sdk v1.1.1 (following the com.google.android.libraries.* → Xamarin.GoogleAndroid.Libraries.* convention). Includes extraDependencies for the androidx lifecycle / savedstate / navigationevent split assemblies that AdActivity's ComponentActivity base requires transitively.

Metadata transforms

Transforms/Metadata.Namespaces.xml: maps the public SDK packages to Xamarin.GoogleAndroid.Libraries.Ads.Mobile.Sdk.* namespaces (internal packages are not exposed).
Transforms/Metadata.xml: resolves generated binding errors and trims surface area:
- Mediation listener EventArgs collisions (CS0102) via per-interface method renames.
- Java generic-erasure mismatches (CS0534/CS0738) by removing a few generic base members: self(), getCode(), pollAd(String), getAdSizes(). Concrete subclasses retain their typed equivalents.
- Removes com.google.android.libraries.ads.mobile.sdk.internal* packages via <remove-node/> so Xamarin.GoogleAndroid.Libraries.Ads.Mobile.Sdk.Internal.* is not bound.

Generated / tracking files

PublicAPI.Shipped.txt / PublicAPI.Unshipped.txt for the new binding (updated to remove internal APIs).
published-namespaces.txt: new namespaces added for this binding (excluding *.Internal.*).
docs/artifact-list.md, docs/artifact-list-with-versions.md, and cgmanifest.json regenerated; the groupId added to the license mapping (Android Software Development Kit License) in utilities.cake and build/scripts/utilities.csx.

Notes for reviewers

The SDK bundles com.google.android.gms.ads.* mediation SPI packages that map to Google.Android.Gms.Ads.*, overlapping the existing play-services-ads-api binding. This is acceptable as the two are mutually-exclusive migration targets.
The four removed generic base members are a minor API reduction on generic plumbing — worth a look if any are considered part of the intended public surface.

@copilot why are there merge conflicts?

@copilot why are there merge conflicts?

The conflict was entirely in the generated docs/artifact-list-with-versions.md. That table has a sequential index column in the first cell, so two things collided:

My branch inserted the new ads-mobile-sdk row, which re-numbered every subsequent row by +1.
main (Stable Updates 20260601, Stable Updates 20260601 #1430) bumped a bunch of version numbers in the rows below it.

Both sides therefore touched almost every line in that region, so Git couldn't auto-merge it.

I merged origin/main and regenerated the file from the merged config.json (same logic as the utilities.cake generator), which incorporates both main's version bumps and the new row with correct numbering. config.json, cgmanifest.json, and the other files merged cleanly. Resolved in 5f64c60.

Pull request overview

Adds a new config-driven .NET for Android binding for Google’s GMA Next‑Gen SDK (com.google.android.libraries.ads.mobile.sdk:ads-mobile-sdk:1.1.1) under the com.google.android.libraries.* ecosystem, including the required transforms and repo tracking/registration updates so it can be built, packaged, and published like the other bindings in this repository.

Changes:

Registers the new Maven artifact in config.json (NuGet ID Xamarin.GoogleAndroid.Libraries.Ads.Mobile.Sdk) and wires up license mapping + CG manifest entry.
Introduces binding transforms for namespace mapping and for resolving binding-generation issues (member renames + removal of problematic generic-erasure members).
Regenerates/updates repository tracking outputs (PublicAPI files, published namespaces list, and artifact list docs).

Addresses review feedback on PR #1436. Renames namespace segments to follow PascalCase conventions used elsewhere in the repo (e.g. play-services-ads-lite remaps appopen -> AppOpen, nativead -> NativeAd, rewardedinterstitial -> RewardedInterstitial): - Appopen -> AppOpen - Iconad -> IconAd - Internal.Nativead -> Internal.NativeAd - Internal.Webview -> Internal.WebView - Nativead -> NativeAd - Rewardedinterstitial -> RewardedInterstitial - Swipeableinterstitial -> SwipeableInterstitial published-namespaces.txt updated to match.

@copilot should we not bind Xamarin.GoogleAndroid.Libraries.Ads.Mobile.Sdk.Internal.*?

Can you <remove-node/> these if we shouldn't have them? Also update any namespace or PublicApi.txt files with your changes.

Done in f4843d1. I removed binding exposure for Xamarin.GoogleAndroid.Libraries.Ads.Mobile.Sdk.Internal.* by stripping com.google.android.libraries.ads.mobile.sdk.internal* packages via <remove-node/>, and updated Metadata.Namespaces.xml, PublicAPI.Unshipped.txt, and published-namespaces.txt accordingly.
