How to wrapped native build in phonegap

[Gaspard22]

Hello,
i use phonegap + sencha in a ios project, i was copying all my Sencha project to phonegap www directory, but for some issues related to js not working as expected i build a native app, but i get stuck on the splashscreen.

Someone as an idea about this ?

Did you also modify your app.json to include the cordova ios javascript library? Please detail any other steps that you took to deploy to PhoneGap.

You may also be interested in trying out my project (referenced in my signature) which will handle this for you.

i referenced it in the app.json and the index.html

as i said previously my project works with any problem when i don't package my project, and my build contains no warnings.


where's your signature ??

Below my posts on the forum. Here is a direct link to the project:

your project only works with at least cordova 2.2 ? what about the 2.1 version ?

[bricemason]

I only tested with 2.2, but I think anything 2.0+ would work. You'd just need to modify the cordova.properties file to point to the right libraries.

How to modify the cordova.properties file present in "sencha-cordova-builder-master" folder.?

[bricemason]

Open the file in an IDE then modify the values to suit your needs. The project page describes this and there are screencasts that walk through their use:

I didn't know what Sencha was 24 hrs ago but thanks to your clever approach of building it into PhoneGap I've got the skeleton app running on my iOS device in under an hour.

I feel now like you saved me a million years : )

One bit of confusion I had was I did the 3rd video ( the one that integrates both iOS and Android) first, but that didn't work -- going back to the first iOS-only video is what I've got working now.

What is the relation between the first two individual videos and the third? Are the first two required steps to get the third (dual-build) approach working?

[bricemason]

I'm so glad you got started up quickly! As far as the videos, these two:

Building iOS Applications with Sencha Touch and Phonegap
Building Android Applications with Sencha Touch and Phonegap

are tutorials on how to set up a build with Sencha Touch and Phonegap. There are no added tools or downloads involved, just using what you're given by Sencha.

The third video, Using Sencha Cordova Builder is a tutorial on how to plug in my project which extends the build process provided to you by Sencha. This extension will automate the steps that were laid out in the previous two videos. There is no dependency between them.

So to sum it up, the first two videos demonstrate the manual process and the third one demonstrates the use of a project used to automate that manual process.

If you couldn't get the Sencha Cordova Builder to work, I would recommend that you post to this thread:

http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthre...neGap-Projects

that relates to the project. I am subscribed to it and will be able to help out over there with any specific problems you've encountered.
