PhoneGap: BarcodeScanner Sharing Plugin

Note:

  1. I wanted to develop IOS and Android application with QR code scanning feature.

  2. I do not own Mac machine, I'm using Netbean/Eclipse in WIndows OS.

Question:

  1. Is it possible to have single codebase written with Eclipse Windows OS + android BarcodeScanner Plugin, and get built into IOS application via Adobe Cloud Build service

Deeply appreciated if someone could give me an advice.

Solution
