Tutorial for CrossWalk Webview Plugin (Android)

###Information

You need to upgrade our plugin to version 1.3.9 in order to use Crosswalk. We've removed "the old way" and do not support it anymore.

###1. Add Crosswalk webview plugin

$> cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview

###2. Change the AndroidManifest.xml ONLY DO THIS STEP IF YOU HAVE A BLACK-SCREEN-PROBLEM, IF NOT, JUST SKIP THAT STEP In my tests, it was not necessary to change anything here. I will just keep it here as a "backup" for older devices.

In order to change the background color of the WebView as transparent, you need to modify the application settings by your hand.

Open AndroidManifest.xml, find android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar", then change to android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar".

Info: Before 1.3.9, you had to change ANIMATABLE_XWALK_VIEW. There is no need to change ANIMATABLE_XWALK_VIEW anymore, since it is FALSE by default now. If you use "Native Transition Plugin", they force you to set it to true with <preference name="CrosswalkAnimatable" value="true" />. This should not work with our plugin, but you could try it (my test cases were good)

###3. Build and Run For Android, just type these commands:

$> cd HelloMap/
$> cordova build android

###Troubleshooting

1. Thus it is not related to this plugin, there is currently a bug with Crosswalk 14+. Please use 15+, as the bug is fixed already. If you can't update and you get something like this

platforms/android/src/org/crosswalk/engine/XWalkCordovaCookieManager.java:22: error: cannot find symbol
import org.xwalk.core.internal.XWalkCookieManager;

open platforms/android/src/org/crosswalk/XWalkCordovaCookieManager.java and change

import org.xwalk.core.internal.XWalkCookieManager;

to

import org.xwalk.core.XWalkCookieManager;

This will fix the error message on compile.

2. If you have problems with the "Fullscreen" Button staying on top of the map, follow this one: https://crosswalk-project.org/jira/browse/XWALK-5869
