I had a sencha touch application for which I packaged it to run natively on mobile, I followed all the steps mentioned in sencha docs in Native Packaging for Mobile Devices and in Packaging Native iOS Applications, I built the application using the command sencha app build native using sencha cmd version 4 and completed the provisioning and got the certificate and I copied the application on my iPhone and everything was fine, now there's an update in the application to be made and I have upgraded sencha cmd to version 5, now when I run the build native command I get the following error:
BUILD FAILED
[ERR] java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: STBuild is no longer supported in Cmd 5. Please use the cordova or phonegap packager for device packaging.
[ERR] at org.apac
[ERR] he.tools.ant.TaskAdapter.execute(TaskAdapter.java:154)
What does it mean that STBuild is no longer supported? I checked the docs of sencha cmd 5 and here is what's written about packaging:
Native Packaging: Native packaging to convert a Sencha Touch application into a first-class, mobile application that has access to device functionality and can be distributed in App Stores.
I can't imagine that native build was supported in version 4 and now not supported in version 5.
I am running this on Mac OS X 10.9.3.
Sencha Cmd 5 did drop support for STBuild - it is now recommended you use PhoneGap or Cordova for your hybrid packaging needs. See this article for more information as it's really simple to setup.
