On the flip side, if we do not update cordova-js with the latest on its master,
we would have found this bug https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8996 much
later - only when the cordova.js would have merged to the platform repo - which
I believe happens only around the time of a release?
Here's the real failure:
Failed to install 'cordova-plugin-file-transfer':CordovaError: Plugin doesn't
support this project's cordova-wp8 version. cordova-wp8: 4.0.0-dev, failed
version requirement: >=4.0.0
Looks like cordova-lib's version comparison using semver, which does not
recognize 'dev' in the version of WP8 and fails:
if ( semver.satisfies(engine.currentVersion, engine.minVersion) ||
engine.currentVersion === null ) {
// engine ok!
} else {
var msg = 'Plugin doesn\'t support this project\'s ' + engine.name
+ ' version. ' +
engine.name + ': ' + engine.currentVersion +
', failed version requirement: ' + engine.minVersion;
return Q.reject(new CordovaError(msg));
}
Should the code for cordova-lib be updated to strip out '-dev' suffix?

I am not entirely sure what the best approach is, personally I would just
expect it to build with the cordova.js installed by the version.
There is no guarantee that platforms and cordova-js are in sync at any given
time. Maybe we should put this behind a flag and have the CI run it both with
and without ... not sure.
