             Summary: Add lintOptions (checkReleaseBuilds OR abortOnError) to 
the build.gradle script when exporting an SDK
                 Key: CB-8864
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8864
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Android
    Affects Versions: 4.0.0
         Environment: Mac OS X 10.10.3; [email protected]; 
[email protected]; Android Studio
            Reporter: Kelvin Dart
            Priority: Minor


Please can you add in the following to the build.gradle script for the android 
module in the cordova-android project:

{code}
...
android {
    lintOptions {
        checkReleaseBuilds false
    }
}
...
{code}

Or:

{code}
...
android {
    lintOptions {
        abortOnError false
    }
}
...
{code}

The former has the advantage that all lint errors will display for debug 
purposes should you need to review them.

The issue occurred when using the plugin com.phonegap.plugins.barcodescanner 
and creating a signed APK in Android Studio - this plugin uses translations and 
because the strings.xml contains additional items which are not present in the 
plugin's translation XML files, Lint/Android Studio throws a wobbly and does 
not export the APK because of an error.

It could be argued that the plugin should alter their XML translations and 
include the MissingTranslations attribute, but there are over 30 files and this 
fix seemed to quickly resolve the issue instead of editing each one manually.
