Question

I am using OSX 10.8, and XCode 4.41. I went through and installed Cordova from the PhoneGap site. Went through the getting started part of the PhoneGap site. I successfully installed Cordova and launched it on the iPhone simulator. My question is do I just add my app ( example: index.html, associated js and css files) to the www folder? and is there a phonegap.js or .jar file, or any other files I need to add to the application to be able to compile it?

Was it helpful?

Solution

The name got changed from PhoneGap to Cordova because of legal reasons with Adobe now owning the trademark on PhoneGap. If you had previously used phonegap.js and phonegap.jar they are now cordova.js and cordoava.jar with the version numbers included.

Cordova will be the src distribution from Apache and PhoneGap will be the downstream binary distribution available from phonegap.com.
