cdvMinSdkVersion seems to not work in 7.1.4

I specified this <preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="23" /> into config.xml, but it seems not work in 7.1.4.

I think these PRs might cause this problem.

• https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/pull/495/files
• https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/pull/551/files

https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/blob/a68f9fd752a25bb680da96414a3b956357c2dfcb/bin/templates/project/app/build.gradle#L125

I quickly fix this line to ext.cdvMinSdkVersion = cdvMinSdkVersion == null ? null : Integer.parseInt('' + defaultMinSdkVersion). It seems to work well.

I think actual cdvMinSdkVersion is set on this line.

FYI: The workaround is to specify gradleArg when you build.

cordova build android -- --gradleArg=-PcdvMinSdkVersion=23

This will override minSdkVersion. I confirmed it works on 7.1.4.

You can confirm whether it works well using aapt command.

aapt l -a path/to/apk/android-release.apk | grep 'minSdkVersion'

I solved changing lines in file: platforms/android/gradle.properties

org.gradle.daemon=true
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m
android.useDeprecatedNdk=true
cdvMinSdkVersion=21

to

org.gradle.daemon=true
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m
android.useDeprecatedNdk=true
cdvMinSdkVersion=19
