             Summary: Create 'platforms' and 'merges' sub-directories in the Hybrid Mobile project structure
                 Key: JBIDE-16659
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16659
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: aerogear-hybrid
    Affects Versions: 4.1.1.Final
            Reporter: Vineet Reynolds


Currently the Hybrid Mobile project structure is very nearly similar to the project structure created by the Cordova CLI. It simply lacks the {{platforms}} and {{merges}} sub-directories.

When attempting to use the Cordova CLI, the {{platforms}} directory needs to be created at the very least, followed by execution of the {{cordova platform add android}} or {{cordova platform add ios}} CLI commands. This eventually sets up the native SDK projects that can be built with ADT or XCode.

We should attempt to create a {{platforms}} sub-dir so that the hybrid mobile project is compatible with Cordova CLI. Additionally, if possible (due to the presence of a nested ADT sub-project), we should try and use the {{platforms}} directory as the default export location of the created native projects. This would ensure that exporting of the project in Eclipse is more or less equivalent to the {{cordova prepare android}} or {{cordova prepare ios}} commands.
