Manual installation - crash at launch

[jrouault]

Cordova version: 3.5.0-0.2.7
Webview+: 2.2.0
Device: Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0) GT-P3110, Android 4.1.2

Hi, I tried to installed manually the latest version of Webview+ but without success.
I simply created a Cordova project, followed the Readme and ended up with this exception at startup:

Here is a simple bash to execute in an empty folder, tested on OSX 10.9.4, to reproduce the test:

npm install cordova
./node_modules/cordova/bin/cordova create testwebviewplus com.example.testwebviewplus testwebviewplus
cd testwebviewplus/
./../node_modules/cordova/bin/cordova platform add android
cd ../
git clone https://github.com/ludei/webview-plus.git
sed -i -e 's/^public class CordovaWebView extends WebView.*/import com.ludei.chromium.LudeiWebView;\'$'\npublic class CordovaWebView extends LudeiWebView {/' ./testwebviewplus/platforms/android/CordovaLib/src/org/apache/cordova/CordovaWebView.java
grep -q 'android.library.reference.1=' ./testwebviewplus/platforms/android/CordovaLib/project.properties && sed -i -e 's/^android\.library\.reference\.1=.*/android.library.reference.1=..\/..\/..\/..\/webview-plus\/android/' ./testwebviewplus/platforms/android/CordovaLib/project.properties || sed -i -e '$ a\'$'\n''android.library.reference.1=..\/..\/..\/..\/webview-plus\/android' ./testwebviewplus/platforms/android/CordovaLib/project.properties
cd testwebviewplus/
./../node_modules/cordova/bin/cordova run

Any hints?

Check out #10.

@jrouault did you fix your problem with the solution proposed by @agamemnus ?

[jrouault]

Unfortunately, neither @agamemnus or @vecernik solutions seem to fix this. However I could make it work adding it as a Cordova plugin and building with ADT/Eclipse (steps are specified in #20).
Not sure if it's worth mentioning but I'm not using CocoonJS in this case.

@jrouault Do an "ant clean" then "ant release" on the WebView+ project (whereever your project.properties is referencing e.g. plugins/com.ludei.webview.plus/android). This worked for me.

@severedsea thank you. That worked for me too.
