android - proguard Missing type parameter

Question

i try obfuscate my code of android app with ProGuard. But after this my app give exception at running:

11-15 01:46:26.818: W/System.err(21810): java.lang.RuntimeException: Missing type parameter.
11-15 01:46:26.828: W/System.err(21810):    at da.<init>(Unknown Source)
11-15 01:46:26.828: W/System.err(21810):    at gc.<init>(Unknown Source)
11-15 01:46:26.828: W/System.err(21810):    at fx.f(Unknown Source)
11-15 01:46:26.828: W/System.err(21810):    at com.yourshows.activity.UnwatchedActivity.onResume(Unknown Source)

I checked a mapping file and found this:

com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken -> da:

I think it's lines in my app like:

        Type mapType = new TypeToken<Map<Integer, WatchedEpisodes>>(){}.getType(); // define generic type
        jsData = gson.fromJson(r, mapType);

I can not understand what conclusions should I do? Do not use variable name less then three characters or what?

UPD: answer

Answer 1

answer is: use this proguard.cfg

Big thanks to owner this project --> google-gson

UPD: google/gson has their example of proguard configuration for android applications.

see on github

They propose to use this template of configuration

##---------------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.** { *; }
