I'm trying to configure Proguard, but I can't manage to get it working.
This is the error:
I've tried things like:
-keep class com.android.auth.TwitterHandle.** { *; }
-keep class oauth.** { *; }
Without any luck.
Anyways, I don't really think ignoring is the answer. Because that might mean something is broken.
Any tips?
Thanks!
The warnings indicate that the AndroidQuery library depends on the OAuth library. Apparently, you're using the former library in your project, but the latter library is missing. You could add the missing library, but if your application is working fine without it in debug mode, you can just tell ProGuard to ignore the missing dependency. In this case:
-dontwarn com.androidquery.auth.**
or, to the same effect:
-dontwarn oauth.signpost.**
See the ProGuard manual > Troubleshooting > Warning: can't find referenced class
(I am the developer of ProGuard)
Add these lines to your proguard file.
-dontwarn oauth.**
-dontwarn com.android.auth.TwitterHandle.**
-keep class oauth.** { *; }
-keep class com.android.auth.TwitterHandle.** { *; }
Edit:
Anyways, I don't really think ignoring is the answer. Because that
might mean something is broken.
If you want to use Proguard and you are having some errors such as class not found, then you must disable/ignore their obfuscation. Because Proguard renames names, fields and methods of classes while obfuscating. This becomes a big problem if reflection is used for that classes. So you have to say proguard to ignore(not obfuscate) some classes to prevent this problem.
Please try this post https://stackoverflow.com/a/15477898/1665964
Insert to skip obfuscated in ProGuard your libs, jars, Classes and Subclasses with this example

##---------------End: proguard configuration for Gson ----------
The reason for error must be that you might be using an external jar file (in libs folder).
If this is the case, adding the following line before -keep class ... lines should solve your problem.
-libraryjars libs/<jar_filename>
If u are unfamiliar with proguard cmd tool then you can try proguard gui located at tools/proguard/lib/proguardgui of your android SDK folder.
open proguardgui and load your configuration file.
then in Input / output section add your input and output jar as well as add your android lib used in your project.
***** your main problem is that you havent added your library (Aquery.jar and others) jar that is used in your project , so that proguard can't find the required Classes.***

I know there is an answer on another thread but I feel it is unrelated.
(Or it might be, but I'd appreciate a more elaborate answer)
So I have these in my proguard.rules:
-dontwarn com.google.android.instantapps.supervisor.InstantAppsRuntime
-keep class com.google.android.instantapps.supervisor.InstantAppsRuntime
-dontwarn com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
-keep class com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
-dontwarn com.google.android.gms.tagmanager.TagManagerService
-keep class com.google.android.gms.tagmanager.TagManagerService
-dontwarn io.grpc.netty.NettyChannelProvider
-keep class io.grpc.netty.NettyChannelProvider
-dontwarn io.opencensus.impl.tags.TagsComponentImpl
-keep class io.opencensus.impl.tags.TagsComponentImpl
-dontwarn io.opencensus.impllite.tags.TagsComponentImplLite
-keep class io.opencensus.impllite.tags.TagsComponentImplLite
-dontwarn io.opencensus.impl.stats.StatsComponentImpl
-keep class io.opencensus.impl.stats.StatsComponentImpl
-dontwarn io.opencensus.impllite.stats.StatsComponentImplLite
-keep class io.opencensus.impllite.stats.StatsComponentImplLite
But when compiling the app, I still get these warnings for all of them:
W/ProGuard: The class 'io.opencensus.stats.Stats' is calling Class.forName to retrieve
the class 'io.opencensus.impllite.stats.StatsComponentImplLite', but the latter could not be found.
It may have been obfuscated or shrunk.
You should consider preserving the class with its original name,
with a setting like:
-keep class io.opencensus.impllite.stats.StatsComponentImplLite
(that is an example)
Why is that happening? Is ProGuard actually keep the classes or did it not process by proguard.rules?
It is probably because you are missing the opencensus library dependency from your project.
Add below line to your gradle dependencies, e.g.
dependencies {
implementation 'io.opencensus:opencensus-api:0.18.0'
}
I am trying to add custom Proguard rules for my app, but I am not sure into which file I should add those custom rules. I know of three files
1)Android/sdk/tools/proguard/proguard-android.txt
2)Android/sdk/tools/proguard/proguard-project.txt
3)Project --> app --> proguard-rules.pro
First of all you will use the
3)Project --> app --> proguard-rules.pro
and
few generic custom rules which are safe to apply on app and wouldn't
hinder the functioning of it
depends on the code in your app but if you will set minifyEnabled to true(which is recommended) this could lead to a lot of issues which can be solved through proguard rules file.
This is my proguard file for one of my projects where I'm using Fabric, httpApacheClient, shareActionProvider and some other libraries that needs specific rules for proguard.
# This will ignore warnings for missing translations and some other wanrinings
-ignorewarnings
# Keeping line numbers for easy error tracking :
-keepattributes SourceFile,LineNumberTable
# Support ShareActionProvider will not work without this line :
-keep class android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider { *; }
# Flurry Crashlytics
-keep class com.flurry.** { *; }
-dontwarn com.flurry.**
-keepattributes *Annotation*,EnclosingMethod
-keepclasseswithmembers class * {
public <init>(android.content.Context, android.util.AttributeSet, int); }
# Preserve Flurry mediation classes for DFP/AdMob Ads keep public class com.google.ads.mediation.flurry.**
# Google Play Services library
-keep class * extends java.util.ListResourceBundle {
protected Object[][] getContents(); }
-keep public class com.google.android.gms.common.internal.safeparcel.SafeParcelable {
public static final *** NULL; }
-keepnames #com.google.android.gms.common.annotation.KeepName class *
-keepclassmembernames class * {
#com.google.android.gms.common.annotation.KeepName *; }
-keepnames class * implements android.os.Parcelable { public static final ** CREATOR;
}
-keepattributes InnerClasses, EnclosingMethod
-keep class com.ironsource.mobilcore.**{ *; }
-dontwarn org.apache.http.**
-dontwarn android.net.http.AndroidHttpClient
-dontwarn android.app.Notification
-keep class com.dianxinos.DXStatService.stat.TokenManager {
public static java.lang.String getToken(android.content.Context);
}
-keep public class * extends android.content.BroadcastReceiver
-keep public class * extends android.app.Activity
-keep public class * extends android.content.ContentProvider
And almost you will find related proguard settings in the documentation of any external library you use.
in
3)Project --> app --> proguard-rules.pro
There are not generic proguard rules. All those generic ones already included with SDK, It depends on what features and libraries are you using in your project. Also there is no safeway of doing it. You have to apply rules and test app -> fix any issues then repeat same process.
Application crashes after proguard (proguard generated by eclipse IDE).

EDIT: to resolve the problem you need to add this lines to proguard.cfg and have no errors. New lines tells proguard to ignore android.support libraries.
-dontwarn android.support.v4.**
-keep class android.support.v4.** { *; }
-dontwarn android.support.v7.**
-keep class android.support.v7.** { *; }
In your proguard config, you have commented out the keep of the class that it can't find:
#-keep public class android.support.v7.widget.ShareActionProvider
Did you try uncommenting that and building again?
EDIT: since that didn't solve your problem, maybe try the catch all described here:
Android Proguard configuration for the v7 Support Library ActionBar
specifically, try adding:
-keep class android.support.v7.internal.** { *; }
-keep interface android.support.v7.internal.** { *; }
-keep class android.support.v7.** { *; }
-keep interface android.support.v7.** { *; }
You can then make it more specific if that works, because this obviously just keeps all the support library classes, even ones you don't use.
I am having an error with the Proguard file in Android.
The point is, I know how to use it in an Android Project, but now, I need to use it for an Android Library Project, and the .jar extracted (there is no resources on the library), to obfuscate the code, because I would like to distribute my library for everyone to use it, but with the code obfuscated.
My Android library project is a normal one, I just take the .jar with is contained in the "bin" folder from the Library Project, and I am trying to use the Proguard to obfuscate it this way:
java -jar proguard.jar #proguard-project -verbose
My Proguard file is the next one:
-injars in.jar
-outjars out.jar
-libraryjars /home/jorider/wul4/adt-android/sdk/platforms/android-17/android.jar
-libraryjars /home/jorider/wul4/adt-android/sdk/extras/android/support/v4/android-support-v4.jar

}

}
-keepclassmembers class * extends android.app.Activity {

}

}
-keep class * implements android.os.Parcelable {
public static final android.os.Parcelable$Creator *;
}
-keepclassmembers class *.R$ {
public static ;
}
-dontwarn android.support.**
The result I get for running that on the console is :
Shrinking...
java.io.IOException: The output jar is empty. Did you specify the proper '-keep' options?
Anyone knows why?
Thanks a lot!
You can find a configuration for processing libraries in the ProGuard manual > Examples > A typical library.
Notably, you'll need to preserve all public API:
-keep public class * {
public protected *;
}
I want to use Proguard mainly for obfuscation reasons.
My problem is that I have three libraries, Twitter4J and two signpost libraries. These libraries caused errors when I tried to create an signed APK. To get over this I put the following in the proguard.config file...
-dontwarn org.apache.commons.codec.binary.**
-dontwarn org.slf4j.**
-dontwarn com.sun.syndication.io.**
-dontwarn com.sun.syndication.feed.synd.*
While this got rid of the errors in the console, when i loaded my signed APK onto my mobile phone it instantly crashed. The DDMS said this was due to a class not found in Twitter4J.
Getting rid of the "dontwarns" above did not help. Neither did adding dontshrink dontoptimise.
I would like Proguard to completely ignore the libraries (as they are open source anyway). Is this possible?
Try this:
-keep class javax.** { *; }
-keep class org.** { *; }
-keep class twitter4j.** { *; }
Cf post from #CaspNZ:
Android Proguard with external jar
You should be able to add to the proguard.cfg the following lines to exclude all classes within a package (and subpackages)
-keep class org.apache.commons.codec.binary.**
-keep interface org.apache.commons.codec.binary.**
-keep enum org.apache.commons.codec.binary.**
-keep class org.slf4j.**
-keep interface org.slf4j.**
-keep enum org.slf4j.**
-keep class com.sun.syndication.io.**
-keep interface com.sun.syndication.io.**
-keep enum com.sun.syndication.io.**
-keep class com.sun.syndication.feed.synd.**
-keep interface com.sun.syndication.feed.synd.**
-keep enum com.sun.syndication.feed.synd.**
I'd like to add that you should sync your project with Gradle files after adding proguard rules, otherwise they may not work.
