[Flutter-Android] [R8-Proguard] Minify issue, missing classes when build app.

[hoyiliang]

Good day, we will refer to the following error log.

ERROR: Missing classes detected while running R8. Please add the missing classes or apply additional keep rules that are generated in .../build/app/outputs/mapping/qaRelease/missing_rules.txt.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:minifyQaReleaseWithR8'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.internal.tasks.R8Task$R8Runnable
   > Compilation failed to complete

After some research around the web, I am expected to add some keep rules into proguard-rules.pro file to keep the classes that the SDK requires.

Some notes:

1. Only happens when building in Release mode because the build script only enables Minify in Release mode by default.
2. Using -dontwarn in the missing_rules.txt is not the solution. The app crashes when I try to call the SDK's methods.
3. I have tried to include the following keep rules, but the app still crashes when I call the SDK's methods.:

-keep class aQute.* { *; }
-keep class com.sun.* { *; }
-keep class java.awt.* { *; }
-keep class java.beans.* { *; }
-keep class com.skype.rt.** {*;}
-keep class com.azure.** {*;}
-keep class com.skype.android.** {*;}
-keep class com.microsoft.media.** {*;}
-keep class com.microsoft.dl.** {*;}

4. The libraries I am using, reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/communication-services/quickstarts/chat/get-started?tabs=windows&pivots=programming-language-android

build.gradle
dependencies {
    implementation "com.azure.android:azure-communication-common:1.2.1"
    implementation "com.azure.android:azure-communication-chat:2.0.3"
    implementation "org.slf4j:slf4j-log4j12:1.7.29"
}

Please assist on this issue. Preferably I do not need to disable the Minify feature enabled by default.

Thanks!
