I am trying to enable ProGuard when compiling my Android application.
Below is the ProGuard configuration.
The problem I have is that I get a lot of warnings about duplicate definition (pretty much for all classes, in my app or the basic java classes) and what's worse is that when I make changes in my code, those do not get reflected when I run on the device.
I am compiling (and developing) using IntelliJ IDEA 11.1.5 (and just enable ProGuard in the project structure, I did not set it to use the system proguard configuration).
I saw that other question, but it does not help at all, I don't think my problem is limited to 3rd party libraries, I imagine it's more about setting the right input/output... ?

Assuming you are building with Ant inside IntelliJ IDEA, you mustn't add -injars, -outjars, or -libraryjars options; the Ant script already does that for you. This explains the warnings about duplicates.
Note that it's better to remove the generic part of the configuration in your proguard-project.txt and rely on the configuration of the Android SDK. The latter is partly generated by aapt (tuned for your project) and partly maintained inside the SDK.

i have developed which is working fine at weblogic on managed server and admin server.
then i obfuscate it for security requirement by using eclipse proguard tool.
please look at project.propertis file
proguard.config=${sdk.dir}/tools/proguard/proguard-android.txt:proguard-project.txt
target=android-19
android.library.reference.1=../../../Desktop/XYZ/CaptureActivity
android.library.reference.2=CordovaLib
and proguard-project.text file

}
-keep public class org.apache.commons.** { *; }
after obfuscating application stop working. not even connecting to server.
actually ajax call is not working.
if anybody have some idea please share. thanks...
It would be helpful if you could post any exceptions raised when running your program.
Whenever dealing with Proguard issues, one strategy is to disable optimization and keep everything. Something like this:
-keep class com.** { *; }
-keep class org.** { *; }
-keep class mobi.** { *; }
-keep class fr.** { *; }
-keep class de.** { *; }
-keepattributes '*'
-dontshrink
-dontoptimize
Make the configuration as pessimistic as possible until the configuration allows the app to work. After that, start removing packages from -keep. Also, remove -dontoptimize and -keepattributes, one at a time.
I have a problem with using proguard, this first time I learned proguard, I use this and more link to make proguard but I have not been able to implement to my project,in my app I use libs google_play_services and actionbarsherlock. I kept trying and the result is always error. I had 2 days looking for how I can use proguard in my project, this time I was really confused, I need proguard in my application, this screenshot of my app (app_run).
this my proguard setting
-optimizationpasses 5
#When not preverifing in a case-insensitive filing system, such as Windows. Because this tool unpacks your processed jars, you should then use:
-dontusemixedcaseclassnames
#Specifies not to ignore non-public library classes. As of version 4.5, this is the default setting
-dontskipnonpubliclibraryclasses
#Preverification is irrelevant for the dex compiler and the Dalvik VM, so we can switch it off with the -dontpreverify option.
-dontpreverify
#Specifies to write out some more information during processing. If the program terminates with an exception, this option will print out the entire stack trace, instead of just the exception message.
-verbose
#The -optimizations option disables some arithmetic simplifications that Dalvik 1.0 and 1.5 can't handle. Note that the Dalvik VM also can't handle aggressive overloading (of static fields).

could anyone help me to give a way how to use proguard for my application?
really need help,thanks
Proguard is going to require "rules" for the libraries you use, and possibly your own code too. Many of these rules can be found https://github.com/krschultz/android-proguard-snippets/tree/master/libraries
I'm developing an app with android and appEngine. I deployed AppEngine with 2 new Entities: Version and Noticia.
If I make a call from webbrowser to list Noticia the result is a wellformed json with my Noticias.
If I call from Android (with the generated appName-modules) in debug mode everything works fine, but when I make from realease version I can't get anything from my appengine.
I think that is something about auths but I don't want user to authenticate.
I have in api entity declarations clientId and audiences empty.
Thanks in advance,
iniro
UPDATE --> SOLUTION
Finally I found the solution B-)
The problem was my proguard configuration.
I changed my proguard config file for this one, and voilá.
Thanks.

I am working on an Android library project. I want to distribute this library as JAR to other developers.Before distributing the JAR I want to obfuscate it. I have tried using PROGUARD for this purpose, but its failing at the last step and says
The output jar is empty. Did you specify the proper '-keep' options?
Can anyone suggest what is going wrong ?

First, I thought activities can´t be obfuscated because of the reflection call
myactivity.class
I've tried to add:
- keep public class mypackege.myactivity.class
But it does not solve the problem. Any ideas how to obfuscate the gui elements?
Thanks
Christine
But my gui classes, which extends acitvit, view and sherlockactivtiy are not obfusecated.
That is because your ProGuard configuration file says to not obfuscate them. Moreover, this is important, as if they are obfuscated, your app will not run, because:
Android will not find your renamed activities
Android will not find your activity lifecycle methods
Android will not find your widgets (for use with reflection in interpreting layout resources)
etc.
I´ve tried to added: -keep public class mypackege.myactivity.class But it does not solve the problem.
That is because you are telling ProGuard to not obfuscate that class.
Any ideas how to obfusecate the gui elements?
You don't, if you wish to have a working app when you are done.
