Proguard rules for Gradle 8.5+

[Aure77]

Since I upgrade to Gradle 8.5 and com.android.tools.build:gradle:8.2.2 with proguard enabled but there is some changes with this version. Missing class are now blocking minify process, ex:
ERROR: R8: Missing class com.tagcommander.lib.tciab.consent.TCCMPStorage (referenced from: void com.tagcommander.lib.consent.TCConsent.loadIAB() and 4 other contexts)

Can you provide proguard rules for each of your module ? I only found info for TCCore. Need rules for TCConsent & TCIAB

Hello ! The doc in TCCore says:

-keep class com.tagcommander.lib.** { *; }

All modules are inside com.tagcommander.lib.** so it's pretty strange if it's not working with this specifically on Consent and IAB

Basically it's about telling ProGuard what not to remove so there should be no reason for it to not find "com.tagcommander.lib.tciab.consent.TCCMPStorage"

It's more likely that you are completely missing the IAB module since the error is pointing to Consent calling IAB so proGuard seems to be keeping Consent.

I've been using -keep class com.tagcommander.lib.** { *; } without any issues until today. However, after upgrading to Gradle 8.5+, I encountered problems with ProGuard. I only utilize the core, ServerSide, and Consent dependencies, and I don't explicitly include TCIAB in my dependencies.

To temporarily fix my build, I omitted the TCIAB package by adding:
-dontwarn com.tagcommander.lib.tciab.**

However, I'm unsure if this is the correct approach.

I think it's due to
android.enableR8.fullMode=true
by default on Gradle 8+ (previously was false).
https://developer.android.com/build/releases/past-releases/agp-8-0-0-release-notes?hl=fr#default-changes

R8 full mode performs more aggressive optimizations...
