Description
(I have been reading that Intel has a bug report ready, but I can't wait and I don't know if they forgot about it or possibly died.)
My plugin uses the Google downloader_library and play_licensing_library. The project.properties file links to the downloader_library, which itself links to the play_licensing library. So here's the deal – Cordova 5 blew up my plugin in some way: https://github.com/agamemnus/cordova-plugin-xapkreader/issues/22
The purported fix suggested by Intel was to use Gradle – add a build-extras.gradle file to one spot, and add two framework tags (for the two libraries I am using) to plugin.xml:
<framework src="android-sdk/extras/google/play_apk_expansion/downloader_library" custom="false"/>
<framework src="android-sdk/extras/google/play_licensing/library" custom="false" />
... then in play_apk_expansion/downloader_library, I have a file like this:
dependencies {
debugCompile project(path: '..:..:play_licensing:library',configuration: "debug")
releaseCompile project(path: '..:..:play_licensing:library',configuration: "release")
}
Okay, cool, but there are two problems, one of which is DEFINITELY a Cordova bug:
1) Using custom="false" gives me lots of problems. I get errors that say that the project isn't a gradle library and none of the linking works. How do I fix this? I don't want to use custom="true".
2) Using custom="true" doesn't give me those problems, but the files are incorrectly copied to my /platforms/android directory.
They are copied to:
/platforms/android/com.flyingsoftgames.xapkreader/free-downloader_library
/platforms/android/com.flyingsoftgames.xapkreader/free-library
There seem to be two bugs here:
A) Only the last directory is added. ("downloader_library" and "library").
B) The last part of my PROJECTNAME is prefixed. This is NON-IDEAL (to put it lightly) for a plugin!!! (my project name has spaces, so the code decided to use the last word following a space... otherwise it uses the whole project name).
Finally, I'm unable to do relative pathing. I had to do this in build-extras.gradle:
':com.flyingsoftgames.xapkreader:play_licensing:library'
...instead of this:
'..:..:play_licensing:library'
