Joe Bowser updated CB-6892:
---------------------------

    Priority: Minor  (was: Major)

This appears to be a problem with updating the project, and may be related to iconic's changes more than Cordova itself.

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Android
>    Affects Versions: 3.5.0
>            Reporter: Bruno Braga
>            Priority: Minor

> After update from 3.2 to 3.5 my android project stopped to compile.
> I think something broke in a recent update with Cordova.
> My problem is the same reported at http://forum.ionicframework.com/t/unable-to-resolve-org-apache-cordova-mac/4445
> Another guy tested each Cordova version (android + mac + eclipse) and that is the results:
> ------------------------------------------------
> 3.4.1-0.1.0 - After my success in the previous post,I deleted CordovaLib from the platfiorms/Android directory. Cordova was unable to rebuild it - works if it already exists (which may be why they didn't catch this bug - it affects brand new projects).
> 3.2.0-0.4.0 - does not build (note - seemed to have alot of plugins included)
> 3.3.1-0.4.2 - works if you start with a fresh new folder - you can't just ugrade, you have to start fresh and copy your app files back in
> 3.5.0-0.2.4 (latest) - fails on a clean build
> 3.5.0-0.2.1 - fails on clean build
> 3.4.1-0.1.0 - fails on clean build
> 3.4.0-0.1.3 - fails on clean build
> 3.4.0-0.1.0 - fails on clean build
> 3.4.0-rc.2 - could not install via npm - its gone...
> 3.3.1-0.4.23.3.1-0.4.2 - SUCCESS! WORKS
> now to jump ahead and upgrade cordova to latest and try rebuilding on top of old project with CordovaLib already built:
> 3.5.0-0.2.4 - the latest!
> Rebuilds, but output different - no line breaks in the output, but it works. There seems to be alot of operations different than the early version - like a degug.apk being created.
> To recap I did this to fix it [ATTENTION: BAND-AID SOLUTION FOLLOWS]:
> Install old version of cordova from February, 2014
> sudo npm -g uninstall cordova
> sudo npm -g install cordova@3.3.1-0.4.23.3.1-0.4.2
> delete previous project
> rm -Rf wishthisworked
> cordova create wishthisworked
> cordova platform add android
> cordova build android
> DONE with old version, now to install the latest version
> sudo npm -g uninstall cordova
> sudo npm -g install cordova@3.5.0-0.2.4
> within directory, build again - WORKS
> Going forward :
> Cordova needs to fix this bug. I'll report my findings to them.
> The bad thing is every new project won't build for Android, without first uninstalling the new version of Cordova and going back to the old version from Feb, 2014, or try copying the CordovaLib directory to the platform/android directory - but that is stupid ... We shouldn't have to do this... (I have not tested this by the way)
> So there's definitely a bug, it shouldn't be this hard. And even if its an issue with my environment when all is said and done, it would be REAL NICE to have some code in the setup that checks for that and tells the user/installer. Otherwise, I have to dig into this more to find out why Ant is broke, and I don't have time for that. I can just do my app in native Android and Xcode faster than fixing this issue.
