             Summary: Characters breaking Xcode project file for plugin.xml  compiler-flags
                 Key: CB-6438
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6438
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: iOS, OSX, Plugman
    Affects Versions: 3.4.0
            Reporter: Chris Ewald


Extend compiler-flags to support more characters

In plugin.xml:

I would like to set the compiler-flags value to "-std=gnu99".:
{code:xml}
<source-file src="src/ios/CDVdbcamera.m" compiler-flags="-std=gnu99" />
{code}

Upon adding this plugin to a fresh cordova project using the cli `cordova plugin add myplugin`, the Xcode project file breaks and will not open (Xcode 5.1).

I found that compiler-flag value with just A-Za-z characters works and I can verify the value flowed through to the Xcode project build settings page.

{code:xml}
<source-file src="src/ios/CDVdbcamera.m" compiler-flags="lettersonly" />
{code}

After some inspection, I found that the 'space' character and the '=' character will cause the Xcode project file to become inoperable.

Add support for non-letter characters in the compiler-flags attribute?

I'm using the standard apache cordova 3.4.1 project template . This has the default project build style setting to the c99 setting which does not work for some source files I am compiling in this plugin. I can fix this all by setting the cordova project style setting to gnu99. I thought to use the compiler-flags setting to fix this so this plugin would remain portable across projects.
