When using Proguard I was getting a VerifyError on SDK 3 when trying to access the Version.SDK_INT field.
With proguard disabled, everything worked fine because I was using the standard approach of using a wrapper class to prevent VerifyErrors: public static int getSdkInt() { int sdkInt = getSdkIntSafely(); if (sdkInt < 4) { return sdkInt; } else { return VersionSdkIntWrapperForDonut.getValue(); } } private static int getSdkIntSafely() { try { return Integer.parseInt(VERSION.SDK); } catch (Throwable t) { return -1; } } private static class VersionSdkIntWrapperForDonut { private static int getValue() { return VERSION.SDK_INT; } } However, it appears that (using the default Android Proguard config), the wrapper class was being "optimized" in such a way that this technique no longer worked. My current workaround is to specify -dontoptimize which works fine. Is there a more specific flag to use? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
