App crashing when I run Proguard on GSON (which using enum)

Question

I am using GSON in my Android app to parser the data. I have added an enum in my Model object. After adding an enum my app started crashing. When I made runProguard false everything works fine. I did everything I could find on internet to fix the problem when program is true. But still no luck.

I have already done following thing in proguard-rule file

-keep class com.google.** { *; }

-keepattributes *Annotation*
-keepattributes Signature

-keepclassmembers enum * { public static **[] values(); public static ** valueOf(java.lang.String); }

Enum Stuff example:

public enum TypeX {
@SerializedName("live")
LIVE,

@SerializedName("upcoming")
UPCOMING,

@SerializedName("replay")
REPLAY; }

My stack trace

This should be solved by using the following rule:

-keepclassmembers enum * { *; }

or the use the following:

-keepclassmembers enum com.your.package.** { *; }

This is the right answer for me. Adding the following line in proguard solves my problem: -keepclassmembers enum * { *; } – Saeed Sharman Jan 05 '18 at 18:36

I resolved this problem with adding those rules in my proguard-rule file :

    # GSON.
-keepnames class com.google.gson.** {*;}
-keepnames enum com.google.gson.** {*;}
-keepnames interface com.google.gson.** {*;}
-keep class com.google.gson.** { *; }
-keepnames class org.** {*;}
-keepnames enum org.** {*;}
-keepnames interface org.** {*;}
-keep class org.** { *; }

-keepnames class com.yourpackagename.net.** {*;}
-keepnames enum com.yourpackagename.net.** {*;}
-keepnames interface com.yourpackagename.net.** {*;}
-keep class com.yourpackagename.net.** { *; }

-keepattributes Signature
-keepattributes *Annotation*
-keep class sun.misc.Unsafe { *; }
-keep class com.google.gson.stream.** { *; }

-keepclassmembers enum * {
    public static **[] values();
    public static ** valueOf(java.lang.String);
}

Please verify following things-

Is added proguard-rules.pro file added in app directory.
is path defined in build.gradle(module:app) file path definition is correct like follows -

proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android-optimize.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'

If above 2 steps is okay then please add the following line(rule) in progaurd file-

-keepclassmembers enum * { *; }
Clean, build the project and run again.
