r8不创建输出dex文件。

Question

我试图使用r8，但没有成功：

$ wget https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/mikepenz/fastadapter/3.2.7/fastadapter-3.2.7.aar
$ wget https://maven.google.com/com/android/support/recyclerview-v7/26.0.1/recyclerview-v7-26.0.1.aar
$ unzip fastadapter-3.2.7.aar      && mv classes.jar fastadapter.jar
$ unzip recyclerview-v7-26.0.1.aar && mv classes.jar recycleview.jar
$ echo "-dontwarn java.lang.Object" > proguard.cfg
$ java -jar build/libs/r8.jar --lib android-4.1.1.4.jar --lib recycleview.jar --release --output . --pg-conf proguard.cfg fastadapter.jar
$ dexdump -d classes.dex | grep "insns size" | wc -l
Unable to open 'classes.dex' : No such file or directory
0

但是对于d8，它工作得很完美(即使没有--lib android.jar和--lib recycleview.jar)：

$ java -jar ../build/libs/d8.jar --release --output . fastadapter.jar
$ dexdump -d classes.dex | grep "insns size" | wc -l
390

编辑

试图创建快速适配器保护程序保持规则失败，原因如下：

$ cmdline-tools/build-tools/30.0.3/aapt2 link --proguard proguard_fastadapter.cfg -o proguard_fastadapter.cfg --manifest AndroidManifest.xml
AndroidManifest.xml:2: error: attribute android:versionCode not found.
AndroidManifest.xml:2: error: attribute android:versionName not found.
AndroidManifest.xml:7: error: attribute android:minSdkVersion not found.
AndroidManifest.xml:7: error: attribute android:targetSdkVersion not found.
error: failed processing manifest.

这有点奇怪，因为targetSdkVersion实际上确实存在：

$ grep "targetSdkVersion" AndroidManifest.xml
        android:targetSdkVersion="27" />

问题是，您要传递给R8的唯一规则是-dontwarn java.lang.Object。没有单一的-keep规则，这意味着输出将是空的，因为没有保留入口点。

缺少的是两套保持规则：

1. 所有Android应用程序的一般保存规则
2. 具有所有入口点的具体应用程序的具体规则(反射访问平台，例如查看膨胀)，这些规则可以用aapt2生成。

对于第一组规则，Android (或者更准确地说，是AGP)捆绑这个规则文件，该规则文件作为getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt')的结果传递给所有构建。

# This is a configuration file for ProGuard.
# http://proguard.sourceforge.net/index.html#manual/usage.html
#
# Starting with version 2.2 of the Android plugin for Gradle, this file is distributed together with
# the plugin and unpacked at build-time. The files in $ANDROID_HOME are no longer maintained and
# will be ignored by new version of the Android plugin for Gradle.

# Optimizations: If you don't want to optimize, use the proguard-android.txt configuration file
# instead of this one, which turns off the optimization flags.
# Adding optimization introduces certain risks, since for example not all optimizations performed by
# ProGuard works on all versions of Dalvik.  The following flags turn off various optimizations
# known to have issues, but the list may not be complete or up to date. (The "arithmetic"
# optimization can be used if you are only targeting Android 2.0 or later.)  Make sure you test
# thoroughly if you go this route.

# These classes are duplicated between android.jar and org.apache.http.legacy.jar.

对于第二部分，使用aapt2 link和--proguard选项。这将产生额外的所需规则，如：

-keep class com.example.app.MainActivity { <init>(); }

这两组规则都必须传递给R8 (可以采用多个--pg-conf选项)以及其他特定于应用程序的规则。

当使用Android (同样更准确地说是AGP)时，这是自动处理的。作为参考，这些规则可以在app/build/intermediates/proguard-files中进行检查。有关更多详细信息，请参阅缩小、混淆和优化应用程序。
