             Summary: Ripple should check, if phonegap.js / cordova.js files really exists
                 Key: RIPPLE-37
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RIPPLE-37
             Project: Apache Ripple
          Issue Type: New Feature
         Environment: Windows 7 Home Edition, x86, Chrome browser (newest stable version), Ripple Emulator extension for Chrome (newest stable version taken from Chrome Store).
            Reporter: Tomsz Trejderowski
            Priority: Critical


Provide any way of checking if phonegap.js / cordova.js files really exists.

If this file is missing and is only referenced in the code (situation required by PhoneGap Build), tested mobile application doesn't work in Ripple (reporting missing PhoneGap-releated objects) and Ripple itself also fails to work properly.

Most spotted things include (when phonegap.js / cordova.js file is missing):

* After clicking "Enable" for the first time, there is no licensee agreement, Ripple moves directly toward selecting platform.

* There is no sign of "Start Ripple Services" and since these services are not started, Ripple itself fails to work as desired.

Therfore, I marked this feature request as critical -- if we don't include checking for phonegap.js / cordova.js (and warning, if it is missing) many users (newbies), especially those using PhoneGap Build (where these files should be missing), will report Ripple Emulator as not working at all.
