Shazron Abdullah created CB-3967: ------------------------------------ Summary: Add compiler-flags attribute to source-file tag Key: CB-3967 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3967 Project: Apache Cordova Issue Type: New Feature Components: Plugman Reporter: Shazron Abdullah Assignee: Filip Maj Fix For: 3.0.0
Proposed for 3.0.0. ML thread: http://markmail.org/thread/3n5cogkp6yrx4ina *Summary:* Add a *compiler-flags* attribute (hyphenated instead of camel-cased to conform to the spec style) to the *<source-file>* tag. *Scenarios:* - Adding third-party code (with lots of files) that are not ARC enabled, and including them in an ARC project (3.0.0 will be ARC), you need to add the *"-fno-objc-arc"* compiler flag to each non-ARC file - Adding third-party code (with lots of files) that are ARC enabled, and including them in an non-ARC project (2.9.0 and below are non-ARC), you need to add the *"-fobjc-arc"* compiler flag to each ARC file Plugins can be upgraded using the *__has_feature(objc_arc)* if they are small, but this is problematic if you had to include the source files for the Facebook SDK, for example (lots of files, maintenance nightmare if you were to modify them). Pre-compiled binaries are unaffected. Example usage: {code} <source-file src="FooBar.m" compiler-flags="-fno-objc-arc" /> {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
