Erin Parrill commented on CB-5093:
----------------------------------
I just double checked the documentation and I'm still not seeing these
attributes documented yet. I too was having to manually change my
AndroidManifest.xml and plist files because these attributes were getting set
with the default values that I didn't want because I didn't know what
attributes I needed to be adding and setting in the config.xml until I found
this.
> CLI builds version number inconsitently between iOS and Android

> Key: CB-5093
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5093
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Android, CLI, iOS
> Affects Versions: 3.1.0
> Reporter: Adam George
> Assignee: Mark Koudritsky
>
> I'm hoping this issue isn't just my ignorance, but I'm finding the app
> version number generation via the CLI to be inconsistent and odd.
> iOS and Android both support a version number (which is what is displayed in
> the app stores), as well as another string, which most people use as a build
> number.
> E.g. for iOS:
> Myapp-Info.plist:
> Bundle versions string, short: 1.0.0 (this is what will show in the app
> store)
> Bundle version: 0.0.3 (this is some other build number)
> Android:
> AndroidManifest.xml:
> android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="0.0.3"
> versionName is what shows in the stores, and versionCode is typically used
> like a build number (as far as I can tell).
> My point is, in the cordova.xml, I only have the ability to set one of these
> version numbers. There is only a single "version" attribute.
> But we need two attributes, so we can set both version strings via the CLI.
> Secondly, how the "version" attribute is applied when building via the CLI is
> inconsistent. On iOS it's updating the "build" number, and not even touching
> the main version number that users will see in the store.
> Whereas Android has what I would expect as the correct behaviour.
> Anyway, please let me know if I've misunderstood anything.
