Andrew Grieve commented on CB-5650:
-----------------------------------
I think the motivation here was that at runtime there is no way to tell what
version of cordova the native side is running. Having the native side use
whatever logging exists to it to log the message on start-up is the ask.
> make visible the version of the Cordova native lib

> Key: CB-5650
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5650
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Android, BlackBerry, iOS, Ubuntu, WP8
> Reporter: Marcel Kinard
> Priority: Minor
>
> We recently had a situation where a consumer had mismatched the runtime: one
> version of cordova.js and another version of the Cordova native code. The
> consumer gave us their compiled app, so we didn't have access to the native's
> source in the project. We had an idea that it would be nice if the native
> code compiled in some marker so we could tell what version it was without the
> source. Perhaps issue a log on startup saying "Greetings from Cordova native
> code 3.2.0", or have something compiled in that would appear in "strings
> cordova.jar | grep version".
