Re: ProGuard problem on Android AdMob SDK 6.2.0

[Eric Leichtenschlag]

Hey Willie, 

It looks like when the AdMob SDK was ProGuarded, it left a reference to this AdState class. These warnings are benign and can safely be ignored. You can use the "-ignorewarnings" flag in the proguard-project.txt file for now as a workaround. This issue should be fixed in the release after v6.2.1, which probably still has this issue.

Thanks,

Eric

Hi,

I add the newest AdMob SDK 6.2.0 to my android project.

But when I export apk with ProGuard, it always shows the following error:

-----

Proguard returned with error code 1. See console

Warning: com.google.ads.m: can't find referenced class com.google.ads.internal.state.AdState

Warning: com.google.ads.m: can't find referenced class com.google.ads.internal.state.AdState

       You should check if you need to specify additional program jars.

Warning: there were 2 unresolved references to classes or interfaces.

       You may need to specify additional library jars (using '-libraryjars').

java.io.IOException: Please correct the above warnings first.

       at proguard.ProGuard.main(ProGuard.java:492)

I have tried to add "-keep class com.google.ads.**  {*;}" in my proguard-project.txt but didn't help.

Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks!

Also confirmed that 6.2.1 has this issue, it took some digging to finally get to this thread. I had just downgraded to 6.1.0 in the meantime...

Hi Max,

6.2.1 still has this problem,

I add "-dontwarn com.google.ads.**" in the proguard-project.txt according to Eric's suggestion.

And it seems no problem now.

Thanks,

Willie

Not fixed in 6.2.1 is it?

Is it because 6.2.1 was released prior to schedule due to the crash problem?

Max.

Or you could use 6.2.1 and add  "-dontwarn com.google.ads.**" as suggested above.

If its a different problem, then I suggest starting a new thread.

You may not be getting any ads because you have no inventory. If you don't ProGuard do you get ads?
