java - Proguard vs Annotations

Question

I have an app that uses ActiveAndroid, a database ORM library, that relies on annotations.

@Table(name="test")
public class DatabaseItem extends ActiveRecordBase<DatabaseItem> {

    public DatabaseItem(Context context) {
        super(context);
        // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
    }

    @Column(name="counter")
    public int counter;

}

How do I get Proguard working nicely with this? Currently, I get errors about not finding a column name by ActiveAndroid when using Proguard. I guess it somehow mangles the annotation.

My relevant Proguard configuration:

#ActiveAndroid
-keep public class com.activeandroid.**
-keep public class * extends com.activeandroid.ActiveRecordBase
-keepattributes Column
-keepattributes Table

Answer 1

Column and Table aren't existing java class file attributes. You'll at least have to specify

-keepattributes *Annotation*

Cfr. the ProGuard manual.
