[jira] [Comment Edited] (CB-10694) Platform-specific configuration
preferences don't override global settings
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10694?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15196798#comment-15196798 ]

The problem here is in the config.xml merging, it adds duplicate entries.
For example, this in the root config.xml:
{code}
<preference name="Orientation" value="default" />
<platform name="ios">
<preference name="Orientation" value="all" />
</platform>
{code}
.. is translated to the platform config.xml:
{code}
<preference name="Orientation" value="all" />
<preference name="Orientation" value="default" />
{code}
... which is now a global preference in the platform config.xml, thus showing the result we saw in the previous comment for case #3.

> Key: CB-10694
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10694
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: iOS
> Affects Versions: 6.0.0, 5.4.1
> Reporter: Dan Polivy
> Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: cordova-ios-4.1.1, triaged
>
> In the following scenario, the platform-specific orientation value is not taking preference as I would expect:
> {{global: default, ios: all --> no plist entries}}
> In this scenario, both the global and the platform specific preference setting get copied to the platform's config.xml, and the 'default' wins out. Is it a supported scenario to "override" a global preference with a platform specific setting?
> I am testing with cordova@6.0.0.
> This is related to https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9975 and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8783
