-------------------------------
Summary: Add PDF support to the InAppBrowser within Android
Key: CB-3325
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3325
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Android
Affects Versions: 2.6.0
Environment: Windows 7, Eclipse v3.8.0
Reporter: Kelvin Dart
Assignee: Joe Bowser
Priority: Minor
Fix For: Master
When I was making use of the ChildBrowser for both iOS and Android, I wrote an
extra bit of code to enable PDF support for the Android version (which started
up the installed PDF application if there was one).
I also understand that the Android WebView doesn't natively support viewing a
PDF document which is why it doesn't fully behave like the iOS version - but is
it possible to either: 1) write similar code which, if the opened URL is
directed to a PDF file, then it opens the native PDF reader or; 2) integrate a
PDF view into the InAppBrowser which opens a PDF document much like
InAppBrowser does on iOS.
(1) is what I currently have working at the moment and would probably be
easiest. (2) is what would be very good but I expect more difficult to achieve.
