[jira] [Created] (CB-1139) Android "create" command line tool does
not support "target" argument
Jan Becicka created CB-1139:
-------------------------------
Summary: Android "create" command line tool does not support "target" argument
Key: CB-1139
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1139
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Android
Affects Versions: 2.0.0
Reporter: Jan Becicka
Assignee: Joe Bowser
Android command line tool does not support "target" argument and it usage is very limited, because it takes latest available target, which is in my case Android 4.1. But there is almost no real devices with target Android 4.1. I think, that most developers want to develop for 2.3. I think, that create command for android must support "--target" option to be usable out of the box.

----------------------------------
You should always target highest. Cordova will still run on older phones with a high target.

---------------------------------
I'm not good at sh scripting, but fix should be rather simple:
22c22
< # ./create [path package activity]
---
> # ./create [path package activity --target target]
87a88,91
> if [ "$4" == "--target" ]
> then
> TARGET=$5
> else
88a93
> fi

Jan Becicka resolved CB-1139.

Resolution: Not A Problem
You are right, guys. I'm sorry for false report. I thought, that it will not run on older devices.

Anis Kadri commented on CB-1139:
--------------------------------
I believe the target is only for build purposes
The app will run on Android 2.1 and above (defined in the template AndroidManifest.xml)
See [here|http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html] for more info.
I don't see the motivation to build for an older target ?
