bootstraponline 74a233b6e8 Fix compressXml
The old compressXml did not presist across uiautomator sessions.
By requesting 'DumpWindowHierarchyCompressed' it ensures the result is
always compressed, even if the server had been restarted.

For some reason if compressXml is disabled then the xpath index on Android
will return the wrong result.

Bootstrap Android

To install the Android Maven dependencies in your local environment, run the following:

  • Clone https://github.com/mosabua/maven-android-sdk-deployer into your workstation
  • Set the ANDROID_HOME environment to the location of the Android SDK, eg. export ANDROID_HOME=/Developer/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130219/sdk/
  • Run mvn install -P 4.3 from the maven-android-sdk-deployer directory. The build will fail if API 18 and some extra packages are not installed.

You can then compile the bootstrap project by running

mvn package -P 4.3

If mvn package fails, try deleting your ANDROID_HOME folder and downloading everything again. If it still doesn't work try:

android-sdk/tools/android update sdk --no-ui --obsolete --force

and then run mvn clean ; mvn install
