Short description of the problem:

Error in gradle when building ioinic project after adding crosswalk plugin.

What behavior are you expecting?

Build normally

Steps to reproduce:

1. add crosswalk plugin to a basic ionic project
2. ionic prepare android
3. ionic build android
4. open the /platforms/android folder with Android Stuido

`Error:(185, 0) Error: NDK integration is deprecated in the current plugin.  Consider trying the new experimental plugin.  For details, see http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system/gradle-experimental.  Set "android.useDeprecatedNdk=true" in gradle.properties to continue using the current NDK integration.`

Thanks for submitting an issue with us! As this bug is related to the ionic cli i am going to be moving this issue to that repo. Please feel free to continue this conversation over there!

[gsanjeevkumar]

Is this still an issue if you use the beta version of the CLI? npm install -g ionic@beta

I've got the same problem and changing to beta didn't help unfortunately...

I get this output

$ ionic browser add crosswalk
The browser task has been deprecated.
Please use the Cordova Crosswalk plugin instead:

ionic platform add android
ionic plugin add cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview

when adding the crosswalk browser with ionic@beta

[jspenc72]

After adding the android platform and the cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview plugin as per the instructions given. I am still getting this error.

I found a solution, manually create gradle.properties file and added inside android.useDeprecatedNdk = true

[jspenc72]

Can you post a copy of the gradle.properties file you created manually?

Of course only has a line of code.
android.useDeprecatedNdk=true
File must be in the root of platforms/android folder.

[gsanjeevkumar]

this worked for me. Hope this remains consistent for the future versions too...

[smarquez-dev]

Very glad that works for you, there must be a better way. And I guess fix it up in future versions of ionic.

[tlancina]

Thanks for the workaround @smarquez-dev, I'm going to close this as it's not something that Ionic needs to fix, rather it's something Cordova could add to cordova-android.
