I suggest to move the icons to <project_root>/res/icons/<platform> and copy them from there to the platform www. Although this has several drawbacks:
- testing the UI in a browser by opening www/index.html might surprise some developers because they use the icons not only to represent the app but also in the UI. - Some might expect the icon to be relative to config.xml. "<icon src='icon.png' /> looks like icon.png is next to config.xml - Sharing icons between platforms become irksome (soft links?) - Maybe cordova should search in several places? www/icon.png and res/icon/icon.png and res/icon/<platform>/icon.png (in this order?) I started to work on CB-2606 https://github.com/AxelNennker/cordova-cli/blob/master/src/metadata/android_parser.js#L75 but need input from this group how to implement this. -Axel 2013/10/22 Wargo, John <john.wa...@sap.com> > I brought this up with fil a while back and it's a documented issue in > jira.
