Build fails

[mzealey]

Upgraded to 0.8.0 and build is failing on cordova-android 7. Looks due to ANDROID_SUPPORT_V4_VERSION being 28+ ... cordova-android 8 works without issue.

I've used cordova-android@7 and cordova-android@8 without having issues.

Its possible to define the support-lib version per app: https://github.com/katzer/cordova-plugin-printer/blob/master/plugin.xml#L97

I get the same error from a fresh install :

Using cordova-android 7.1.1

[biaggi]

This solution seems to be working for me:

https://forum.ionicframework.com/t/build-break-with-aapt-error-message-why/123955/6

edited file “project.properties”

Search for cordova.system.library.2=com.android.support:support-v4:+ and replace for cordova.system.library.2=com.android.support:support-v4:27.1.0.

I ran into the same issue, any updates?
