Sample repository which demonstrates linting issues with AGP >= 7.0.0
In the following scenario :
- An activity in a module A extends an activity in a module B
- The activity in the module B is an abstract class
- The activity in the module B extends AppCompatActivity
- Minify is enabled
Environment used :
- Java 11
- AGP >= 0
- Gradle 7.0.2
- Android Studio Arctic Fox | 2020.3.1 Patch 4
- Build #AI-203.7717.56.2031.7935034, built on November 21, 2021
- Runtime version: 11.0.10+0-b96-7281165 x86_64
- VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o.
- macOS 11.5.2
- GC: G1 Young Generation, G1 Old Generation
- Memory: 2048M
- Cores: 8
- Registry: external.system.auto.import.disabled=true
- Non-Bundled Plugins: Dart, org.jetbrains.kotlin, io.flutter, org.intellij.plugins.markdown
The app:lintVitalRelease task will fail, saying that the activity in the module A should extend android.app.Activity.
The issue is not happening with 4.2.0 <= AGP <= 4.2.2 (checkout the git branch 4.2.2 to compare)
- Clone the repository
- Open a prompt and execute
./gradlew assembleRelease --stacktraceThe build fails and the following error message should be displayed following app:lintVitalRelease :
> Task :app:lintVitalRelease FAILED
/Users/tboutin/AndroidStudioProjects/InstantiateErrorAGP/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:13: Error: MainActivity must extend android.app.Activity [Instantiatable]
android:name=".MainActivity"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Explanation for issues of type "Instantiatable":
Activities, services, broadcast receivers etc. registered in the manifest
file (or for custom views, in a layout file) must be "instantiatable" by
the system, which means that the class must be public, it must have an
empty public constructor, and if it's an inner class, it must be a static
inner class.
1 errors, 0 warnings
Lint found fatal errors while assembling a release target.
To proceed, either fix the issues identified by lint, or modify your build script as follows:
...
android {
lintOptions {
checkReleaseBuilds false
// Or, if you prefer, you can continue to check for errors in release builds,
// but continue the build even when errors are found:
abortOnError false
}
}
...
