How do I build proguard.jar on Linux

Hi,

I just cloned the project and at tag v7.0.1. Afraid I couldn’t locate any documentation for building proguard.jar or how to get started on a Linux platform.

Will appreciate a little hand holding please.

Thanks.

Hi @rajulshah,

You can build ProGuard by cloning both the proguard project and the proguard-core project.

Once you have both of these cloned you can build ProGuard using a composite build which includes the proguard-core build:

cd proguard
./gradlew --include-build ../proguard-core assemble

This will create lib/proguard.jar and then you can execute proguard with:

bin/proguard.sh
