             Summary: The android implementation of file transfer plugin should not depend on the concrete class android.webkit.CookieManager
                 Key: CB-5059
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5059
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Plugin File Transfer
    Affects Versions: Master
         Environment: cordova-android, git branch 3.0.x

            Reporter: Junmin
             Fix For: Master


The android implementation of file transfer plugin leverages the class android.webkit.CookieManager, which depends on the concrete web infrastructure android.webkit.WebView. This dependence ruins the portability of the plugin. For example, it could not run on a substantial implementation of CordovaWebView which based on a android third party component(such as chromium for android).

Following is the crash log when initializing the CookieManager without android.webkit.WebView:
I/dalvikvm(5006): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Call CookieSyncManager::createInstance() or create a webview before using this class
