I understand that you shouldn't create files manually in `platforms/android`, but you could have a hook that generate the files automatically before build. This technique is actually documented in https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/guide/platforms/android/#project-configuration. Given that the default values for `cdvReleaseSigningPropertiesFile` and `cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile` are also documented, it's not difficult to come up with a scheme where these default signing files are generated by a hook script as part of the build process. Something that doesn't work anymore in `9.0.0` due to this commit https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/commit/3712619f5cd3de5055336e87bfade2bc2407900d. In the previous implementation, there was a check to verify the signing properties file was auto-generated or not. This is now gone. It would probably be useful to document clearly that the default values for `cdvReleaseSigningPropertiesFile` and `cdvDebugSigningPropertiesFile` shouldn' t be used, because the corresponding files will be deleted on each build. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
