Adding AdMob ads in XML

Question

I'm trying to add AdMob ads to my app but when I do it, as soon as I launch my app it crashes.

This is my XML code:

<com.google.ads.AdView 
    xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/lib/com.google.ads"
    android:id="@+id/adView"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    ads:adUnitId="mydevid"
    ads:adSize="BANNER"
    ads:testDevices="mydeviceid"
    ads:loadAdOnCreate="true"/>

Also, once I get it to work, how do I set where exactly is the ad going to be shown? Thank you

have you add jar file of google admob sdk? && internet permition — PankajAndroid, Jun 14 '13 at 04:38
make sure in your Build path you go to `Order and Export` and export the AdMob SDK jar. Otherwise it won't get bundled into your application and the app will crash when you try to reference AdMob code. — Eric Leichtenschlag, Jun 14 '13 at 21:26
