Android Proguard - 如何保留仅从 XML 布局引用的 onClick 处理程序

Question

In my Android app I ofter don't create a View's on-click handler in code, but rely on the ability to specify it in the XML layout file, like this:

   <Button
        ....
        android:onClick="onSearchClicked"
       ...../>

And then have the method in the Activity like this:

    public void onSearchClicked( View v ) {
    ........}

Meaning there is no obvious reference to this method in my own code.

When running Proguard for a production release it seems to remove this method and the on-click fails.

What can I add to my proguard config file to avoid this that won't oblige me to rename all these methods?

• An annotation I could add to the method and have proguard take notice of?
• Somehow specify these types of methods referenced from xml?
• I suppose I can add a false reference in the code, but would like to avoid that if I can as I won't always remember to put it in!

I have looked through the proguard examples for Android and can't see anything for this particular need.

Answer 1

This seems to be the best answer, as it is 100% robust to naming of such methods:

# This will avoid all the onClick listeners referenced from XML Layouts from being removed
-keepclassmembers class * extends android.app.Activity { 
       public void *(android.view.View); 
}

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

-keepclasseswithmembers class * {
   public void onSearchClicked(android.view.View );
}

but double check it from proguard doc: http://proguard.sourceforge.net/index.html#/manual/refcard.html

Answer 3

I use:

-keepclassmembers class * extends android.app.Activity { 
       public void on*Click(android.view.View); 
}

and then I name all onClick methods like: onCancelBtnClick(), onBackgroundClick(), etc.
