Android proguard, keep inner class
JavaAndroidProguardJava Problem Overview
My android program has a class A
, which has two static inner class
. They are found to be stripped from .dex
after applying proguard.
public class A{
...
static class B{
...
}
static class C{
...
}
}
I have put the following lines in proguard.flags, but seem no luck.
-keep class com.xxx.A
-keep class com.xxx.A$*
Any hint?
Java Solutions
Solution 1 - Java
Try adding InnerClasses
to the keep attributes. e.g:
-keepattributes Exceptions, InnerClasses, ...
Also, try adding a body to the "keep" call with an asterisk, like so:
-keep class com.xxx.A$* {
*;
}
Solution 2 - Java
This is what I had to do for my config
-keep class com.xxx.A { *; }
-keep class com.xxx.A$B { *; }
-keep class com.xxx.A$C { *; }
Solution 3 - Java
This did the trick for me
-keepattributes InnerClasses
-keep class com.yourpackage.YourClass**
-keepclassmembers class com.yourpackage.YourClass** {
*;
}
It may be a bit overkill with the wildcards but I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything. The main thing is you need the InnerClasses attributes the keep on the class and the keepclassmembers on the class.
Solution 4 - Java
if you don't want all inner class and members in some package to be obfuscated you can add lines in proguard-rules.pro
-keep class com.xxx.task.*$* {
*;
}
Solution 5 - Java
Your configuration looks correct. You should double-check that you haven't misspelled the class names. If the spelling in incorrect, ProGuard should print out a note about it. You can also specify -printseeds seeds.txt
, and see if your classes are listed in the resulting file. If they are listed, the classes are also in the processed code.
As Alexander Lucas mentioned, you may also want to keep the fields and methods of these classes -- that depends on your requirements.
Solution 6 - Java
Most of the top answers does the job but they are using wildcard (*;)
for adding everything which is not the accurate answer. Below configuration only adds the fields
and method
properties to preserve inner class methods.
-keepattributes Exceptions,InnerClasses,Signature, ...
# preserve class and nested classes' fields and methods
-keep class com.abc.package.clazzes.** {
<fields>;
<methods>;
}
