Summary: InAppBrowser compile error for Amazon FireOS
Key: CB-9274
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-9274
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Amazon FireOS, Plugin InAppBrowser
Affects Versions: 3.5.0
Reporter: Ian Paterson
Assignee: Archana Naik
Attempting to compile the InAppBrowser plugin for Amazon FireOS fails due to
the following programming errors:
{noformat}
[javac] Compiling 8 source files to /path/to/amazon-fireos/ant-build/classes
[javac]

As best I can determine, this problem has existed since plugin version 0.5.2
and was introduced on August 14 in [commit
69ca780772b406ab02ec1bd1a8e4dca70052e926|https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser/commit/69ca780772b406ab02ec1bd1a8e4dca70052e926].
Previous commits had diverged the implementation of InAppBrowser.java in
Amazon FireOS such that it was no longer compatible with the InAppBrowser.java
for Android.
I am preparing a pull request to patch this issue to restore the ability to use
the plugin on this platform.
