[android-developers] Re: Meta: Changes to new-user moderation policy

[Jason Atwood]

How easy is it to delete a spam account from the admin console? Single 
button click? If it's easy, I'll volunteer to be an admin just to help with 
the spam. If a few other people did this too I bet we could have it down to 
zero in no time.

[android-developers] I'm getting a ClassNotFoundException from play services lib when using Proguard

[Jason Atwood]

I just turned on ProGuard on my build and now I'm getting a 

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class 
"com.google.android.gms.chimera.GmsModuleInitializer" on path: 
DexPathList[[zip file 
"/system/app/PlayGames.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/vendor/lib, 
/system/lib]]


If I understand from the docs all that I need to use Proguard with Play 
Services should be included by the Android Gradle plugin:

*Note: ProGuard directives are included in the Play services client 
libraries to preserve the required classes. The Android Plugin for Gradle 
 
automatically appends ProGuard configuration files in an AAR (Android 
ARchive) package and appends that package to your ProGuard configuration. 
During project creation, Android Studio automatically creates the ProGuard 
configuration files and build.gradle properties for ProGuard use. To use 
ProGuard with Android Studio, you must enable the ProGuard setting in your 
build.gradle buildTypes. For more information, see the ProGuard 
 guide.*

This the important part of my app module build.gradle file:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
compileSdkVersion 23
buildToolsVersion "23.0.3"
defaultConfig {
...
}
...
buildTypes {
release {
signingConfig signingConfigs.releaseConfig
minifyEnabled true
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'),
'proguard-rules.pro'
}
qa {
signingConfig signingConfigs.releaseConfig
minifyEnabled true
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'),
'proguard-rules.pro'
}
debug {
applicationIdSuffix ".debug"
minifyEnabled true
proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'),
'proguard-rules.pro'
}
}
}


dependencies {
...

//google play services
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:8.4.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:8.4.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:8.4.0'
}



This is my top level build.gradle file:


// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all 
sub-projects/modules.
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.2'
}
}

allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
mavenCentral()
}
}


What am I missing?
