android gradle - How to disable Dexguard? -

i went through documentation looking way how disable dexguard when running gradle keeping plugin: 'dexguard'.

i tried modify proguardfile getdefaultdexguardfile('dexguard-debug.pro') nothing unfortunately no luck. need set no dexguard functionality functional testing suit monkeytalk cannot instrument apk now.

how turn dexguard functionality off?

update zatziky's answer current android gradle plugin (v1.0+) , dexguard plugin (6.1.+)

to create dexguard plugin switch may following

in root build.gradle add property ext (or create if not done yet, see here why that)

ext {     enabledexguardplugin = false     .... } 

in app build.gradle add plugin this:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application' if(rootproject.ext.enabledexguardplugin) {     apply plugin: 'dexguard' } 

and if have library projects this

apply plugin: 'com.android.library' if(rootproject.ext.enabledexguardplugin) {     apply plugin: 'dexguard' } 

remove proguard configs debug build-types (especially getdefaultdexguardfile('dexguard-release.pro')) if dont need them. unfortunatly @ least lib projects, buil-types build in assembledebug, have provide stub getdefaultdexguardfile zatziky said:

private file getdefaultdexguardfile(string name) { new file(name) } 

you may add root build.gradle every script has it.

now if expected huge performance benefits may disapointed. key disable minifyenabled on debug builds, since said before gradle android dumb , builds build-types (at least libs). may use property above it: enabledexguardplugin

release {     ...     minifyenabled rootproject.ext.enabledexguardplugin     ... }
