Android: Add option to reinstall application on top of old one

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      After 3f24e2cc5bfc9fac7c1cfd6ab0dc9b0880e879ea, androiddeployqt has a "--reinstall" option. When this is used, the tool will not uninstall old instances of the application from the device before installing it again. This means that caches and user data stored by the application will remain intact across subsequent runs.

      Would it be possible to add an option to use this feature when available? I also think it can probably be the default, unless there's some downside I can't think of right now?
