Could not get unknown property 'ANDROID_SUPPORT_V4_VERSION'

MarcBalaban commented 5 years ago

Spec:

config.xml:

<preference name="phonegap-version" value="cli-6.5.0" />
<plugin name="cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing" spec="https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/SocialSharing-PhoneGap-Plugin" />

Problem:

Build is working on Windows and IOS without issues, but Android Phonegap build is erroring out.

Solution:

Within your config.xml -- use:

<gap:plugin name="cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing" source="npm" />

instead of:

<plugin name="cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing" spec="https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/SocialSharing-PhoneGap-Plugin" />

in ionic project Spec:

config.xml:

  <feature name="SocialSharing">
    <param name="android-package" value="cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing.SocialSharing" />
    <param name="ios-package" value="SocialSharing" />
  </feature>

or

  <feature name="SocialSharing">
    <param name="android-package" value="nl.xservices.plugins.SocialSharing" />
    <param name="ios-package" value="SocialSharing" />
  </feature>

get the same error:

cordova plugin remove [PLUGIN_ID] cordova plugin add [PLUGIN_ID]@[VERSION]

@UnknownDino @fecogc you can specify: <gap:plugin name="cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing" source="npm" spec="5.4.0" />

Was getting the same issue while building a cordova app with visual studio. Removed the "gap:"from the beginning and added the following line in config.xml <plugin name="cordova-plugin-x-socialsharing" spec="5.4.0" src="npm" />

And it worked like a charm. Thanks a lot @MarcBalaban and @knyazz :+1:

The current version of the plugin is 5.6.3. So you are saying that the fix for the issue is downgrading to version 5.4.0?

5.4.0 is the last version that has the version hardcoded:

<framework src="com.android.support:support-v4:24.1.1+" />

so it means that any version after that won't work? (see diff: https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/SocialSharing-PhoneGap-Plugin/compare/5.4.0...5.4.4#)

MarcBalaban commented 4 years ago

downgrading worked for me last year, but have not checked releases for a while, so perhaps has been fixed?
