Question

I have been like a tiger chasing its tail for weeks.

Dreamweaver 5.5 simply will not consistently compile my mobile Android programs. I found a fix that worked for a while and then suddenly stopped. I’ve found Adobe’s official fix.(http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/924/cpsid_92492.html) Nothing works.

As a work around, I’m trying to figure out how to import the generated Dreamweaver files into Eclipse so that I can build the .apx file. This is the workaround that I’m also using with Xcode since Dreamweaver 5.5 doesn’t work as expected there either. (Makes me pretty furious since I paid a small fortune for DW 5.5 just because Adobe advertised it for mobile devices. A company of Adobe’s size should produce a product that works as stated.)

This issue isn’t just mine, many people are and have complained about it.

At any rate, can someone tell me how to import the DW generated files into Eclipse so that I can generate the needed build?

I agree with you Mr.User1204493. There is no documentation available as how to import the generated Dreamweaver PhoneGap Site files into Eclipse IDE for Android Platform.

I am currently using Dreamweaver CS6 Trail Version to build a PhoneGap application.

Maybe this solution will help you – I copied all the files generated in the Dreamweaver site folder and pasted it in assets/www folder. As it is the same index.html, you need not change anything in your MainActivity.

It worked initially for a hello world application and displayed correctly in the Android Emulator, but now my PhoneGap application with 5 HTML pages works just fine in Dreamweaver CS6, but its not working on Eclipse.

When i try to run the application it shows a blank white screen for like 2 mins and then a black screen for 30 seconds and then throws an error E/Web Console(302): SECURITY_ERR: DOM Exception 18: An attempt was made to break through the security policy of the user agent. at file:///android_asset/www/jquery.mobile-1.0.min.js:70.
