Can config.xml set android:launchMode?

[Chris]

I put this in my Android app's manifest xml so it would resume, not restart each time the user returns to it. 

<activity .... android:launchMode="singleTask"> 

However - every time I run $ cordova build my Android manifest xml files loses this. How can I work around this? Is there a setting I can put in config.xml to retain this in my android manifest after the build?

Hi Chris,

I don't think you can put a setting in your config.xml yet to keep this android setting, but I'd file a jira bug about it: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB

Until then you can use a hook to copy your modified AndroidManifest.xml to the platforms/android directory (using the after_build hook).  Be aware that if you add plugins that modify AndroidManifest.xml, you'll need to make those changes to your modified AndroidManifest.xml file.

Thanks Dan - appreciate your input.

Hi Chris,

I hope I'm not beating the hook bandwagon too much--I really like them, though.

Would love to hear if you think of/find another solution.
