Question

There is something wrong with the syntax below:

  -keepclassmembers class * {
 public void changeView(android.view.View v);

}

Error: Expecting separating ‘,’ or closing ‘)’ before ‘v’

Not seeing that it really needs a , or ) but thats the error i’m getting.

Seeing the exact same error for:

-keep class com.test.activities.MyActivityActivity {
public void changeView(android.view.View v);

}

Would someone care to share what is wrong with this?

Its says in the manual under Processing Callback Methods:

 -keep class mypackage.MyCallbackClass {
void myCallbackMethod(java.lang.String);
}

Is that not exactly what I am doing?

Answer 1

There is no point in giving variable names (v) in your signature, since they are not there in the byte code anyway (except in debug information which is ignored/stripped by Proguard).

And the error is right, since without a variable name, there will come a ) (or a , in case of not last parameter) before/instead the v.
