------------------------------

             Summary: platform check should install each platform to determine 
if they're functional and their version number
                 Key: CB-6357
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6357
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: CLI
    Affects Versions: 3.5.0
            Reporter: Josh Soref
            Assignee: Josh Soref


Currently `cordova platform check` has a few behaviors which are not 
necessarily ideal:

1. It relies on the platforms.js file to have valid versions which match what 
is actually in the cached ~/.cordova/lib space.
2. If a platform is installed for which there's a newer version which won't 
install (e.g. you're on Windows and you have iOS installed), it could tell you 
that there's an upgrade available, however, you won't be able to install it.

We'd like to fix these limitations by having platform check actually run the 
version script against a live project. This should mean that there will not be 
any false positives: what you see is what you really could get.
