I believe Joe means this bit of code:
// Set the nav dump for HTC 2.x devices (disabling for ICS,
deprecated entirely for Jellybean 4.2)
try {
Method gingerbread_getMethod = WebSettings.class.getMethod(
"setNavDump", new Class[] { boolean.class });
String manufacturer = android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER;
Log.d(TAG, "CordovaWebView is running on device made by: " +
manufacturer);
if(android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT < android.os.Build.
VERSION_CODES.HONEYCOMB &&
android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER.contains("HTC"))
{
gingerbread_getMethod.invoke(settings, true);
}
} catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
Log.d(TAG, "We are on a modern version of Android, we will
deprecate HTC 2.3 devices in 2.8");
} catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
Log.d(TAG, "Doing the NavDump failed with bad arguments");
} catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
Log.d(TAG, "This should never happen: IllegalAccessException
means this isn't Android anymore");
} catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
Log.d(TAG, "This should never happen: InvocationTargetException
means this isn't Android anymore.");
}
I'm in favour of getting rid of it if that is indeed what Joe is
suggestion.
