Is eclipse uses proguard every built of project?

i enabled proguard by adding below line into project.properties,

proguard.config=${sdk.dir}/tools/proguard/proguard-android.txt:proguard-project.txt

But i dont understand that when i click Run button, compiler uses proguard or not ?

If it is not, i need compiler to use proguard every project compiling, because i cant run my project or debeug my project.

i am getting an error from dex compiler,

"[2014-04-09 16:46:04 - Dex Loader] Unable to execute dex: method ID not in [0, 0xffff]: 65536 [2014-04-09 16:46:04 - project] Conversion to Dalvik format failed: Unable to execute dex: method ID not in [0, 0xffff]: 65536"

I found some article which says this problem can be solved by using proguard.

eclipse Version : 4.2.1

ADT Version : 22.3.0.v201310242005-887826

Thank you very much Talha

Solution

  • For build it will not use progruard, but when signing your apk using export eclipse uses proguard.
