Broken Splash Screen - splash screen plugin adds lines for non-existent images for iOS during build process

MM_H_ — Tue, 12 Jul 2016 14:33:04 GMT

I have two versions of the same app, 1.0 and 1.1. I am testing with an iPhone 5 and an iPad 2. I am using version 3.2.2 of the official Splashscreen plugin and only using preferences to control the hiding delay. This issue has only happened recently, in the past 3-4 weeks, before that everything worked fine. I was not on the latest version of Intel XDK at the time this behavior started happening, but I updated to 3400 to see if that would help fix it, so this issue doesn't seem version dependent.

There are 7 designated Portrait splash screen sizes for iOS, all of which are filled out properly using copies of the same images.

On version 1.0 of my app, the following 7 splash lines are generated in my ios xml:

These lines EXACTLY match what is on the XDK interface for splash screens, and everything works perfectly.

However, on version 1.1 of my app, the following splash lines are generated in my ios xml:

Notice there are now 9 lines, and the first two additional lines are NOT sizes represented in the XDK interface, nor are they actual files in my project, and as such, those two lines break showing the splash screen on just the iPad (the iPhone is fine). It is the default splash screen that is shown instead.

My attempts so far to fix this issue:

Resetting the splash images through the interface
Building without the similar sized splash screens (1536x2048, 768x1024) selected at all
Including images of the sizes of the bad lines in the images directory with the other splash screens
Deleting the build files off the server in case anything was cached
Editing the ios config XML directly
Editing the .xdk file to remove these references
Changing the plugin version
Changing the splash screen plugin readme file
Removing the plugin through XDK and reinstalling
Removing the plugin through file directory and reinstalling

I have tried all of these in individually, in various combinations and in various orders -- and every time these lines are added, breaking my splash screen.

I am at a loss for what else to try.

MM -- I've not seen this before and I cannot reproduce it. When I fill in all the slots in the UI I get only seven <splash> tags in my intelxdk.config.ios.xml file. I'm sending you a private message so you can reply with a link to a ZIP of the your ENTIRE project directory. I'd like to see if there's something else going on in the project that's causing this.

Unfortunately I can't send

Unfortunately I can't send the entire project directory without an NDA, but I did figure out at least how to solve the issue for anyone that encounters this in the future:

Remove all references in the xml/xdk files to the non-existent images
Copy all files to a new project
Rename .xdk file to match the new project name
Delete files off of the build server
Build - Copy of project should work fine
Go back to the original project and build again

Now those lines are gone. I changed nothing at all in my code or the XDK interface whatsoever. My only thought is It seems like some kind of caching issue that helped get cleared by creating a new project.
