We don’t enforce any limit, but the underlying tools/libraries may have problems dealing with large packages. > While the website claims you can safely ignore the error about llzw not being > installed, can't help thikning this may actually be relevant at this point. It really isn’t relevant. LMZA is used as an alternative compression method to reduce the size of APKs but is not required and needs to be enabled explicitly. > much of my confusion came from not fully grokking the intended workflow > using "crosswalk-app create", "crosswalk-app build", and "crosswalk-pkg". This is understandable. Crosswalk-pkg is the tool we recommend using. Crosswalk-app was created first, but was then superceded by crosswalk-pkg. Both tool can work together though.

I believe from what I've seen that the issue is roughly: 1. My manifest file is in the parent of "www", which also contains *lots* of files not meant for packaging with the app. 2. crosswalk-pkg does not appear to offer any means to exclude files (e.g. passthru config to aapt-ignore props) 3. All steps thru compilation *appear* to succeed (though the ultimate error message misled me to think initially that compilation failed) 4. When trying to pack the archive, something is barfing when it becomes too large (perhaps 50MB ceiling for Google Play?) While the website claims you can safely ignore the error about llzw not being installed, can't help thikning this may actually be relevant at this point. That said, crosswalk-pkg works just fine on my Mac when packaging a simple HelloWorld template app. I haven't had time to do this, but I suspect a workaround/solution in my case will be to reorganize my project directories and/or add a build script that moves only the needed files into a temp dir before invoking crosswalk-pkg. As an aside -- much of my confusion came from not fully grokking the intended workflow using "crosswalk-app create", "crosswalk-app build", and "crosswalk-pkg". For one thing I assumed at first glance that one might use all three commands in one project. I also assumed (rightly?) that one of the first two commands would result in a full Android application directory, containing within it the "web app" (www), and that crosswalk-pkg would bundle it up into the apk. Were this the case, it would be *possible* to edit the default project configuration, using widely existing documentation. Is the following understanding correct?: - crosswalk-app create -- intended for one-time use in case where no project exists initially; sets up *both* an Android project and an alternative "web app" project. Development would presumably use only one of these artifacts... - crosswalk-app build -- intended to be used repeatedly on the Android project created by the above command (?), to build an executable for use in emulator - crosswalk-pkg -- intended to be used repeatedly NOT in conjunction with the above commands, applied to a web app, creates entire Android project on-the-fly, compiles, and archives into distributable apk On Mon, Sep 12, 2016 at 7:08 PM, Fu, Junwei <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi Belem, Could you please file an issue to track and borrow a Mac device for me to refine it?

I get an error when doing crosswalk-pkg, details below. I am hoping for at least an explanation as to what might be broken, if not a solution, as I am trying to determine how feasible it will be to have OS X build setup while targeting Android devices.

I am running: OS X 10.11.3 (El Capitan) XCode Version 7.3.1 (7D1014) Apple LLVM version 7.3.0 (clang-703.0.31) JRE 1.8.0 Ant 1.9.7 crosswalk-app-tools 0.10.4 (crosswalk 21.51.546.6 downloaded) Android SDK with 21, 22, 23 (5.0, 5.1, 6.0) Have set environment vars for $JAVA_HOME, $ANDROID_HOME, $ANT_HOME, and set PATH accordingly. I've tried creating a simple manifest.json as described in online docs, and also tried crosswalk-app manifest . to generate one, and either way I get a build error possibly related to an Ant build step. The output also warns that this version of crosswalk-app-tools is not tested with crosswalk 21, but I have seen no instructions on how I would control which version of crosswalk is downloaded. $ crosswalk-pkg .
