[jira] [Commented] (CB-5634) Orientation Preference is ignored in Android, should be parsed by CLI

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5634?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13887504#comment-13887504 ] 

Darryl Pogue commented on CB-5634:
----------------------------------

I have a patch to cordova-cli for Android that correctly handles parses the orientation:

> The docs say that an Orientation preference is supposed to work across all platforms.  However, Android's activities can only be locked to an orientation by modifying the AndroidManifest.xml. 
> To get past this, we either change the docs, or we support this in the CLI.  I feel that adding an XML parser to the scripts is complete overkill, since we don't have any tests for our platform scripts, and I personally think they're a giant pile of technical debt.
