Don't Create Threads in the preview window - Huawei Ads Implementation - android-studio

Question

I'm implementing the huawei ads in the android Application. I have go through all the https://developer.huawei.com/consumer/en/doc/development/HMSCore-Guides/publisher-service-banner-0000001050066915 and successfully implemented the ads but android studio preview is giving me error and is not displaying the preview when adding the huawei ads in the xml. After Removing the Huawei Ads preview is showing.
Following is the my layout:

I have invalidate the Cache and restart the Android Studio but nothing has worked yet. Can any one help me to render the preview. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Answer 1

Currently, the Ads kit SDK references the HMS base SDK code, but seems you have not integrate the HMS base SDK.
As a result, this following error occurs during preview.
If you choose not to integrate the HMS base SDK, the Ads SDK function is not affected but will be affected during preview.
So there are two options for your reference :
One way is you can try to integrate the hms base sdk, or another way is to ignore this preview error, because this will not affect the actual operation.
