   Hello,

   I want to add AdRollo to my Lite version of the game I am building and so I need a UIView to put the ads on.
   Now, I tried adding AdRollo to a UIAlertView and showing that AlertView. It doesnt work :)

   Is there a simple way to add a temporary view to cocos2d?
   In the cocos2d examples it only has how to embed cocos2d in existing views, not how to add a view to existing cocos2d applications...

   Thank you,
   Markos

   It's very simple. In your app delegate, you should have a UIWindow *window instance variable. You know, the one you call makeKeyAndVisible on. When you need to display your AdRollo view, just add it to this window like [window addSubview:adRolloView];.

   OK, i bet this is very straightforward, but since I have never used it before I don't know it and I cant find it anywhere.
   If I access window from my AppDelegate its all fine. But how do I access window from some other file, a layer, scene etc?
   I seem to be doing it wrong so as to access the property and I am getting errors. Thanks

   You might use something like to access your delegate:

   MyAppDelegate *delegate = (MyAppDelegate*) [[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];

   Please note that as far as I remember, some usual Cocos tutorials don't have the Window as an instance variable.

   thanks! got it:

   ARRollerView* rollerView = [ARRollerView requestRollerViewWithDelegate:self];
   JellyRescueAppDelegate *appDelegate = (JellyRescueAppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
   [[appDelegate window] addSubview:rollerView];

   and the following to remove
   [rollerView removeFromSuperview];
