Andrew Grieve resolved CB-6929.
-------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix
      Assignee: Andrew Grieve

An unfortunate thing indeed. It's an Android build problem where the build system treats leading _ as "ignore this directory". You can change this behaviour when building from the command-line by setting the aapt.resource.filter ant property, but there's no way to fix it when building with Eclipse that I know of.

> If I create a new Cordova app, and place a JSON file within a folder beginning with an underscore, (eg _data), when I try to load it with XMLHttpRequest, the returning data is always null.
> This only seems to happen on Android.
> If I take the underscore out, the file loads fine. I also tried URL encoding the URL when loading the file, but this made no difference.
