Describe the bug

When using the --env.uglify flag, the generated .class-file is missing from the apk-file. Without the flag, it works fine.

Any news on this ? I had opened https://github.com/NativeScript/nativescript-dev-webpack/issues/564 and still having the problem in tns 6.1.2

[RadouaneRoufid]

I found the solution. "noEmitHelpers": true, must be present in compilerOptions in tsconfig.json while build with env.uglify with custom activity.

@RadouaneRoufid,

It is recommend to set noEmitHelpers: true regardless if you building with env.uglify or extending platform native classes. More info can be found here.

However, I'm glad to hear you resolved your issue so I'm closing this thread.
