Android release build crashes on launch-CodePudding

App installs and runs fine on an android phone during development when I connect it through usb. But when I deployed to production, now it gives me "Unfortunately app has stopped" every time I open the app.

So I figured it out that it's issue with Urban airship settings in proguard-rules file. And added below lines in proguard-rules file.

-keep class com.urbanairship.** { ; } -dontwarn com.urbanairship.*

But still crashes on launch with following error.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: No virtual method object()Lm/b/g; in class Lm/b/g; or its super classes (declaration of 'm.b.g' appears in /data/app/~~8aj5YP2-7MODBpBbFJ_YYw==/com.hct2.android.web.dev-dcCYVQdPn_VkfhnR9UHHfA==/base.apk!classes2.dex)

CodePudding user response：

To avoid such problems in production, it is better to enable proGuard for the debug version as well. I had a similar problem, here is my proguard-rules.pro:

-optimizationpasses 5
-dump class_files.txt
-printseeds seeds.txt
-printusage unused.txt
-printmapping mapping.txt
-optimizations !code/simplification/arithmetic,!field/*,!class/merging*/
-allowaccessmodification
-repackageclasses ''

-keep public class * extends android.app.Activity
-keep public class * extends android.app.Application
-keep public class * extends android.app.Service
-keep public class * extends android.content.BroadcastReceiver
-keep public class * extends android.content.ContentProvider

-keepattributes InnerClasse
-keepattributes *Annotation*, InnerClasses
-dontnote kotlinx.serialization.SerializationKt
-keep,includedescriptorclasses class com.mymiscapps.example.**$$serializer { *; }

-keep class kotlin.reflect.** { *; }
-dontwarn kotlin.reflect.**
-keep class org.jetbrains.** { *; }

-keep class com.mymiscapps.example.** { *; }

-keep public class org.apache.commons.io.**
-keep public class com.google.gson.**
-keep public class com.google.gson.** {public private protected *;}

The text of the error makes me think that proGuard has a problem with activity or serialization. My file includes both.
