Ionic-cli: Crosswalk - XWalkCordovaCookieManager - error: cannot find symbol import org.xwalk.core.internal.XWalkCookieManager

[thim81]

Hi,

We were using Ionic and Crosswalk and for some reason we now always get this error.
While nothing has changed with regards to Crosswalk, but suddenly we get complaints about a missing
import org.xwalk.core.internal.XWalkCookieManager.

Error output

We got great assistance and input from @honry from Crosswalk.

In our config.xml, we had the following:

<preference name="xwalkVersion" value="14+"/>

Honry's input:

I guess you are trying the latest webview plugin, this is caused by recently commit crosswalk-project/cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview#34, and relative fix has been ported to Crosswalk 13 and Crosswalk 14 branch.
you can refer to the issue https://crosswalk-project.org/jira/browse/XWALK-4568, and you can wait for new beta version or trying the latest canary version.

We applied the fix like you referenced: crosswalk-project/cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview#34 which solved the issue immediately.
