How do we upgrade people? Moving around the files is a breaking change! For example, the project you generated doesn't have an assets directory. That's also different than the same code that I generated last week with Gradle using Android Studio!! Yay standards!

I'm not totally convinced of this yet, and I want to be as IDE-agnostic as possible. Most of the users of Cordova shouldn't have to care whether we're using Gradle or Eclipse, and last year at OSCON when I talked to someone who does Android training, they were still discouraging people from using Android Studio. That's the main strength of Ian's solution so far. > Here is what I tried out: > > *$ android create project -n FooName -t android-19 -p FooPath -g -k > io.csantana -a FooMain -v 0.9.0* > > I was not sure what value to pass for "-v" Gradle Android plugin version. > But it looks it worked and created an Android Gradle project in "FooPath" > > First time I ran ./gradlew it download a set of files, then after that any > time I run it again it doesn't dowload I guess they are cache somewhere in > my system. > > I didn't installed gradle, I just have the android sdk, and my path setup > for both "tools" and "platform-tools" for $android and $adb > Yeah, I did the same command. The gradle-wrapper is bundled with the Android SDK. We don't use the Android SDK to generate projects, we run the update to fix our template, which is still very Ant based. It should be trivial once you update the Android project to get the path from local.properties, but I looked at the JS and wondered why we're returning exec. > > Stop reading if you don't want the
