Cordova-Android jar generation problem
I'm having an issue trying to generate the jar file. I noticed a
slight deviation of my setup as I'm running JDK 1.6.0_24 rather than
1.5 is that the problem?
I've got the rest of the prerequisites. Here's what happens: Starting
from a fresh pull from the incubator-cordova-android repository on
github
1. cd to the framework directory and run
android update project -p . -t android-15
I get:
Updated project.properties
Updated local.properties
build.xml: Found version-tag: custom. File will not be updated.
Added file ./proguard.cfg
2. run ant jar
I get:
Buildfile: build.xml
BUILD FAILED
/home/marlin/incubator-cordova-android/framework/build.xml:56: The
<property> type doesn't support nested text data (""").
Total time: 0 seconds
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Marlin

Thanks. I found out that the problem was I was running ant version
1.7.1 which was incompatible with the build file. I upgraded to the
latest 1.8.3 and it worked without a hitch. FFR 1.8.0 is the minimum
ant version.

Run ant jar, that should generate a jar.

Re: Cordova-Android jar generation problem

When you generate the jar successfully after running ant jar, it should
exist directly under the /framework directory (cordova.1.5.0rc1.jar).
Next step is to take this jar and replace the cordova.jar that already
exists in your specific phonegap/cordova application. So from a fresh
start, the process would be:
1. Generate a new Cordova Android application by running ./bin/create
<directory where new cordova app should reside> <package name>
<application name> (I.e. ./bin/create ~/src/myApp com.phonegap.myApp MyApp)
2. Make some changes to the native code under the /framework dir.
3. Cd into the /framework dir and run "ant jar".
4. Copy cordova-1.5.0rc1.jar into the libs directory of your generated
project (I.e. cp cordova-1.5.0rc1.jar ~/src/myApp/libs/)

The only jar file I see in the repository is
/framework/libs/commons-codec-1.3.jar
So when I'm setting up my environment in Eclipse is that what I put in
the libs directory?
Compatred to PhoneGap 1.4 commons-codec-1.3.jar is a world apart from
phonegap.jar.

If you're getting the code from the repository, you shouldn't have to
update the project. That's your problem. Do a git reset and you should be
good to go.
BTW: I'm running 1.6.0_29, so it's not your Java version, especially since
Google runs on 1.6 for ICS builds.
