Error Admob interstitial ads The constructor InterstitialAd(MenuActivity) is undefined

Question

I have written the code for adding interstitial ads from admob to my app's menu activity as per https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/docs/admob/advanced. I have added PERMISSIONS and configchanges in Manifest too. I am getting error in the lines mentioned below:

`

    interstitial = new InterstitialAd(this); // Error: The constructor InterstitialAd(MenuActivity) is undefined

    interstitial.setAdUnitId("lajdID"); // Error: The method setAdUnitId(String) is undefined for the type InterstitialAd

    // Create ad request.
    AdRequest adRequest = new AdRequest.Builder().build(); //AdRequest.Builder cannot be resolved to a type

    // Begin loading your interstitial.
    interstitial.loadAd(adRequest);

`

As usual, when you have errors, we would ask that you post the stacktrace so we can help you. — ChuongPham, Apr 06 '14 at 03:04

import com.google.android.gms.ads.*;

The error is telling you that MenuActivity is not an instance of android.app.Activity.

MenuActivity is the activity where I am using that code which I mentioned above. – Apr 06 '14 at 05:21
Show the code for MenuActivity, because the compiler is telling you that MenuActvity is not an Activity. – William Apr 06 '14 at 05:22
