After a problem integrating admob into my cordova application, I've decided to follow the example layed out here: https://github.com/floatinghotpot/cordova-admob-pro
As I work with a windows 7, I've made the required changes, but it looks something like this:
C:\> cordova create test1 com.rjfun.test1 Test1
Creating a new cordova project.
C:\>cd test1
C:\test1>cordova platform add android

I've made sure, in my SDK maneger, google play is installed (couldn't find any library called google-play-ads). Still, this app fails to compile. What can I do to solve this one? Thanks in advance Yair
