plugin.xml is where *plugin authors* define metadata. A user shouldn't be looking there at all, unless for curiosity, and certainly not making edits unless they are taking over the role of plugin author.
And plugin.xml's are only used for plugin install & cli prepare. They are not available to the app at runtime. We certainly would have the information Braden is trying to gather if we had access to them. Actually that is precisely what Braden is looking to solve: how best to move the necessary information into the platform config.xml. Its an interesting idea, though, could/should we just move over all the plugin.xml's for all potential future purposes? Is that more crazy than Brian is?! ;) -Michal On Thu, Nov 14, 2013 at 6:12 PM, Josh Soref <[email protected]> wrote: > I've converted that into a wiki page: > https://wiki.apache.org/cordova/ConfigurationFiles > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > This transmission (including any attachments) may contain confidential > information, privileged material (including material protected by the > solicitor-client or other applicable privileges), or constitute non-public > information.
