Prevent class member name obfuscation by ProGuard

Thanks Waqas!

I find solution for my case:

-optimizationpasses 5
-dump class_files.txt
-printseeds seeds.txt
-printusage unused.txt
-printmapping mapping.txt
-optimizations !code/simplification/arithmetic,!field/*,!class/merging*/
-allowaccessmodification
-repackageclasses ''

-keep public class * extends android.app.Activity
-keep public class * extends android.app.Application
-keep public class * extends android.app.MapActivity
-keep public class * extends android.app.Service
-keep public class * extends android.content.BroadcastReceiver
-keep public class * extends android.content.ContentProvider

-libraryjars  libs/commons-io-2.2.jar
-libraryjars  libs/gson-2.2.2.jar
-keep public class org.apache.commons.io.**
-keep public class com.google.gson.**
-keep public class com.google.gson.** {public private protected *;}

##---------------Begin: proguard configuration for Gson ----------
-keepattributes *Annotation*,Signature
-keep class com.mypackage.ActivityMonitor.ClassMultiPoints.** { *; }
-keep public class com.mypackage.ActivityMonitor$ClassMultiPoints     { public protected *; }
-keep public class com.mypackage.ActivityMonitor$ClassMultiPoints$ClassPoints { public protected *; }
-keep public class com.mypackage.ActivityMonitor$ClassMultiPoints$ClassPoints$ClassPoint { public protected *; }
# To support Enum type of class members
-keepclassmembers enum * { *; } 
##---------------End: proguard configuration for Gson ----------

Also I don't use @SerializedName("message") in my class, aboved config work fine without serialization.

I also found I need to -keepclassmembers when using Dexguard's optimise option. Without this several of my model objects failed to deserialise

##---------------Begin: proguard configuration for Gson  ----------
# Gson uses generic type information stored in a class file when working with fields. Proguard
# removes such information by default, so configure it to keep all of it.
-keepattributes Signature

# For using GSON @Expose annotation
-keepattributes *Annotation*

# Application classes that will be serialized/deserialized over Gson, keepclassmembers
-keep class com.myapp.model.** { *; }
-keepclassmembers class com.myapp.model.** { *; }

If you dont want your class members to be obfuscated then use SerializedName annotation provided by Gson. For example:

public class ClassMultiPoints
{
   @SerializedName("message")
   public String message;
   @SerializedName("data")
   public List<ClassPoints> data;

   ...

}

Moreover, make sure you do add proper proguard configuration for Gson library too. For example:

##---------------Begin: proguard configuration for Gson ----------
# Gson uses generic type information stored in a class file when working with
#fields. Proguard removes such information by default, so configure it to keep
#all of it.
-keepattributes Signature

# For using GSON @Expose annotation
-keepattributes *Annotation*

# Gson specific classes
-keep class sun.misc.Unsafe { *; }
#-keep class com.google.gson.stream.** { *; }

# Application classes that will be serialized/deserialized over Gson
-keep class com.google.gson.examples.android.model.** { *; }

##---------------End: proguard configuration for Gson ----------
