### The following rules are needed for R8 in "full mode" which only adheres to `-keepattribtues` if
### the corresponding class or field is matches by a `-keep` rule as well, see
### https://r8.googlesource.com/r8/+/refs/heads/main/compatibility-faq.md#r8-full-mode

# Keep class TypeToken (respectively its generic signature)
-keep class com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken { *; }
# Keep class TypeToken (respectively its generic signature) if present
-if class com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken
-keep,allowobfuscation class com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken

# Keep any (anonymous) classes extending TypeToken
-keep,allowobfuscation class * extends com.google.gson.reflect.TypeToken

# Keep classes with @JsonAdapter annotation
-keep,allowobfuscation,allowoptimization @com.google.gson.annotations.JsonAdapter class *

# Keep fields with @SerializedName annotation, but allow obfuscation of their names
-keepclassmembers,allowobfuscation class * {
@com.google.gson.annotations.SerializedName <fields>;

Out of curiosity, why did you remove this here and add it below guarded by a -if class *? Does that make a difference for the end result?

Yes, in R8 full mode we have a distinction between referenced and instantiated classes. For classes which are not seen by R8 as instantiated (e.g. if only referenced statically using .class as one will do in fromJson then -keepclassmembers will only keep static members and not instance members. For ProGuard and R8 in compatability mode the two will do the same.

Hmm thanks, ok that sounds like the previous rules would not have worked properly then because -keepclassmembers would not have kepts the non-static @SerializedName fields. Though I think the shrinker-test showed that it did work as expected?
I am bit confused, or am I misunderstanding your comment or are the shrinker-tests flawed and not close enough to real code?

One way to see the difference is to have an instance field annotated with @SerializedName which is not used in the code at all, then the field will be removed with the previous rule in R8 full mode (which is default from AGP 8.0.0). Then in a pass through from fromJson to toJson the field value will be lost. Of course it is a matter of taste if unused fields should be kept this way.

I think this if class *, -classeswithmembers... class <1> doesn't do anything relative to -classeswithmembers... class * , after reading some of the follow-up threads on that change.

At least for R8 it does seem to make a difference: -keepclasseswithmembers ... class * always keeps the class, even if it isn't used. Whereas -if class * ... -keepclasseswithmembers ... class <1> only keeps the class if it is actually used.

Unfortunately this is not covered by the tests yet; have created #2455 to add a test for this.

Thanks also for the other points you raised, but unless sgjesse wants to address them here as well could you please create a separate GitHub issue or pull request? Otherwise the discussion on this pull request here might drift too far away from the original topic.

Changed the rules to be two -if rules

  1. Keep all @SerializedName fields for classes which are present after shrinking
  2. If a class with a @SerializedName field is present keep its no-args constructor

-keepclasseswithmembers,allowobfuscation,allowoptimization class <1> {

Why did you remove allowoptimization?

Having allowoptimization can allow R8 to propagate field values, so if you have an explicit construction of a serialized class always setting a field to a specific value, then that single value can become the default value for the created instances instead of 0/null.

<init>();
-keepclasseswithmembers,allowobfuscation class <1> {
@com.google.gson.annotations.SerializedName <fields>;

I thought in #2448 (comment) you just explained that you intentionally removed allowoptimization, but now you are adding it back? Is that intentional?

(Or am I misunderstanding this?)

This rule is only covering the no-args constructor (<init>()), so here there is no issue with allowoptimization. For the rule above for the annotated fields it should not be there as otherwise R8 can do value propagation.

<init>();
