title: Embedding Cordova webview on Android (Windows 7 development environment)
body: <p>I have followed the <a href="http://cookieflow.wordpress.com/2013/02/24/installing-android-4-2-sdk-and-phonegap-2-4-0-on-windows-7/" rel="nofollow">these instructions</a> to setup <code>Android 4.4 SDK</code>, <code>Eclipse</code> and <code>Cordova 3.5</code> on my <code>Windows 7</code> PC. The only point that deviated from these instructions is that I did not download <code>Phonegap</code> from a zip file, rather I installed it using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>npm install -g cordova  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>as per <a href="http://docs.phonegap.com/en/edge/guide_cli_index.md.html#The%20Command-Line%20Interface" rel="nofollow">these instructions</a>. Everything installed fine and I was able to create a Hello World app with <code>Cordova</code> and launch it on my <code>Android</code> device. So far, so good. :)</p>
  
  <p>Now, however, I am needing to go a step further and need to get <code>Cordova</code> embedded in my own <code>webview</code> using the <code>CordovaWebView</code>. I am trying to follow <a href="http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.1.0/guide_cordova-webview_android.md.html" rel="nofollow">these instructions</a> but I really am not understanding the steps outlined there. For example, on step 1 (yes, I am stuck on step 1!), it says:</p>
  
  <pre><code> Use bin/create to fetch the commons-codec-1.6.jar
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What is the "create" command? Is it a <code>Java</code> tool? What is the exact command that I would have to type in to do the fetch and will it work on <code>Windows</code>?</p>
  
  <p>The next step says:</p>
  
  <pre><code>cd into /framework and run ant jar
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Ok. I have got <code>Apache-ant-1.9.4</code> on my PC and got a path to it setup in my <code>Windows</code> <code>Path</code> environment variable, but where is the "framework" directory that I need to navigate to??</p>
  
  <p>I would really appreciate it if someone could help me understand these instructions so that I can get this setup in my <code>Windows</code> environment.</p>
