Android Build Fails Due to Deprecated API and Unsafe Operations in R8 build

[mohamedshasho]

Hello, I encountered several issues while building my Flutter app using the salesiq_mobilisten library (version 6.3.0):

Deprecated API: Some input files use or override deprecated APIs. Here's the specific file:

MobilistenPlugin.java (path: C:\Users\Dell\AppData\Local\Pub\Cache\hosted\pub.dev\salesiq_mobilisten-6.3.0\android\src\main\java\com\zohosalesiq\plugin\MobilistenPlugin.java)

Build Failure Message:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
ERROR: Missing classes detected while running R8. Please add the missing classes or apply additional keep rules that are generated in E:\work\projects\w-mobile\build\app\outputs\mapping\release\missing_rules.txt.

> Compilation failed to complete

* Try:

What was in missing_rules.txt -dontwarn kotlinx.parcelize.Parcelize Gradle:

id "com.android.application" version '8.3.0' apply false
id "org.jetbrains.kotlin.android" version "1.9.10" apply false

Please advise on how to resolve these deprecated API and unsafe operation issues, and any additional steps to fix the R8 build failure. Thank you!

Hi @mohamedshasho ,

We apologize for the inconvenience. It seems like you have enabled ProGuard(minifyEnabled) R8, so please add the following rules to your pro guard-rules.pro file (Please create a new file if it doesn't exist), which is located in your android folder and the rules are as suggested in the build error.

-dontwarn kotlinx.parcelize.Parcelize
