## Version 7.3.2
|
||
|
||
### Java support
|
||
|
||
- Add support for Java 20. (#294)
|
||
|
||
### Improved
|
||
|
||
- Merge classes only when `-optimizeaggressively` is set.
|
||

||
### Kotlin support
|
||
|
||
- Add support for Kotlin 1.8.
|
||
|
||
### Improved
|
||
|
||
- Conservative optimization is now the default. Previously, it could be enabled by setting the `optimize.conservatively` system property. This has been replaced with the `-optimizeaggressively` option, which sets optimization to aggressive.
|
||
- Improve optimization performance in edge cases with generated code. (#283)

|
||
|
||
### Kotlin support
|
||
|
||
ProGuard 7.3 deprecates the `-keepkotlinmetadata` option. You can use `-keep class kotlin.Metadata` instead
|
||
which automatically enables processing of Kotlin metadata. Some consumer rules, from libraries

||
|
||
## Version 7.2.1

||
## Version 7.1 (June 2021)
|
||
|
||
### AGP 7 compatible Gradle plugin
|
||
|
||
The way ProGuard is integrated into Android projects is changing because AGP 7 will no longer allow developers to disable R8 with the `android.enableR8` Gradle property.
|
||
|
||
ProGuard 7.1 includes a new Gradle plugin which allows for a seamless integration with this new AGP version. A detailed and step-by-step guide for transition from the previous plugin is provided in the [upgrading guide](setup/upgrading.md).
|
||
|
||
- Simple integration with Android Gradle Projects by adding a dependency on the
|
||
[ProGuard Gradle Plugin artifact](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.guardsquare/proguard-gradle/7.1.0) and applying the `com.guardsquare.proguard` plugin, as presented in the [Gradle plugin setup instructions](setup/gradleplugin.md).
|
||
|
||
### Java support
|
||
|
||
New Java versions are released every 6 months.
|
||
To allow ProGuard to continue to optimize, obfuscate and shrink Java class files we have added support for the latest releases, up to Java 16.
|
||
This includes
|
||
|
||
- Add support for processing Java 14, 15 and 16 class files. (`PGC-0015`, `PGD-0064`)
|
||
- Add support for Java 14 sealed classes. (`PGD-0064`)
|
||
- Add support for records (previewed in Java 15/16, targeted for Java 17). (`PGD-0064`)
|
||
|
||
### New optimizations
|
||
|
||
ProGuard 7.1 adds 5 new code [optimizations](configuration/optimizations.md).
|
||
These optimization aim at reducing the number of classes required by the application and help pinpointing the specialized type wherever possible. This can have a positive impact on code shrinking and application performances.
|
||
|
||
- `method/specialization/returntype` - specializes the types of method return values, whenever possible.
|
||
- `method/specialization/parametertype` - specializes the types of method parameters, whenever possible.
|
||
- `method/generalization/class` - generalizes the classes of method invocations, whenever possible.
|
||
- `field/specialization/type` - specializes the types of fields, whenever possible.
|
||
- `field/generalization/class` - generalizes the classes of field accesses, whenever possible.
|
||
|
||
### Maven central
|
||
|
||
ProGuard was previously hosted at JCenter, but this repository has recently been removed.
|
||
ProGuard is now published to [Maven Central](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.guardsquare/proguard-gradle/7.1.0).
|
||
|
||
- Simple integration : follow the [Gradle plugin setup instructions](setup/gradleplugin.md) to select the `mavenCentral()` repository and dependencies to the `proguard-gradle` artifact.
|
||
|
||
### Easier configuration
|
||
|
||
The [`-addconfigurationdebugging`](configuration/usage.md#addconfigurationdebugging) allows to help configuring ProGuard `-keep` rules.
|
||
For more details and to see this in action have a look at [Configuring ProGuard, an Easy Step-by-Step Tutorial](https://www.guardsquare.com/blog/configuring-proguard-an-easy-step-by-step-tutorial).
|
||
|
||
`-addconfigurationdebugging` previously reported `-keep` rule suggestions for classes, methods or fields that did not exist in the app. Such `-keep` rules are not necessary.
|
||
|
||
ProGuard 7.1 improves the suggestion of `-keep` rules by only suggesting rules for classes, methods and fields that were actually in the original application (`DGD-3264`).
|
||
|
||
- More precise keep rule suggestions provided by `-addconfigurationdebugging`.
|
||
- Easier ProGuard -keep rules configuration.
|
||
- Reduced ProGuard configuration size.
|
||
|
||
### Miscellaneous
|
||
|
||
#### Improvements
|
||
|
||
- Remove Gradle plugin dependency on Android build tools. (`PGD-0066`)
|
||
- Improve error message when missing classes result in an incomplete class hierarchy. (`DGD-0013`)
|
||
- Improve speed of horizontal class merging. (`DGD-1471`)
|
||
- Fix potential `NullPointerException` during GSON optimization. (`T3568`, `T3607`)
|
||

|
||
- Fix potential `NoClassDefFoundError` at runtime after applying Gson optimization to library project. (`T2374`)
|
||
- Improve general performance and stability of optimization.
|
||
|
||

||
|
||

|
||

|
||
the option `-microedition`. You then no longer need to process the
|
||
code with an external preverifier.

|
||
option name `-defaultpackage`.
