Filip Maj updated CB-481:
-------------------------
Description:
The final call in Android's cordova-js after everything is ready is to tell
native to unhide the webview. This is done via a {{prompt}} call with string
"gap_init" or something along those lines.
While this is fine, we already have the {{exec}} module in place to handle
webview -> native communication. We should use that instead. It's kind of
foolish to go one level below {{exec}} when we have the {{exec}} abstraction
available and in place already.
This would also help the testing tool Ripple: Android Cordova apps being
emulated in Ripple would no longer see an annoying prompt following app startup!
Bottom line: {{exec}} is our go-to for calling into native. Circumventing an
abstraction we put into place does not make any sense, and unifies how our
bridge works.

Summary: Patch Android cordova.js to call exec() instead of directly
calling prompt() (was: Android initialize() method calls prompt('gap:init') to
tell native to unhide webview)
