Hey everybody,
i'm currently developing a new maintained Braintree Plugin. As the latest
mobile SDK of them requires AndroidX, i searched for Issues and found this one:
https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/841
As it is mentioned correctly it is nearly enough to change the base class of
the CordovaActivity from android.app.Activity to
androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity.
I forked cordova-android and tested it out. Changing three Java Classes, the
AndroidManifest.xml and adjust the build.gradle Script and it works 😃
Like i comment in the Ticket i thing make the changes based on the
AndroidXEnabled Preference should be a good solution, but the question how.
Adjusting the Gradle File is easy:dependencies {
if (project.hasProperty('android.useAndroidX')) {
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.2.0'
}
}
But how to continue with the other Files? Also the Change in the
AndroidManifest.xml is just on Line:
Change the android:theme to @style/Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar - this can be
easy performed in the prepare Script?
But what about the Changes in the Java Files? What is the best way to make this
possible? I think changing the single Lines in the prepare Script is not the
best solution?
Please give me some hints, so i can create the PR.
Greetings,
Hans
