Instant Run not working

Question

Precondition

Since I use android studio 2.0 (Release version) I get many inner class erros when compiling my app (those seem to be not relevant, as the app still works fine). When I disable instant run, my app works perfectly fine, if I enable it, the app crashes

Observations

The errors while compiling are following:

Error:warning: Ignoring InnerClasses attribute for an anonymous inner class
Error:(com.samsung.android.sdk.pass.e) that doesn't come with an
Error:associated EnclosingMethod attribute. This class was probably produced by a
Error:compiler that did not target the modern .class file format. The recommended

Error:and without specifying any "-target" type options. The consequence of ignoring
Error:this warning is that reflective operations on this class will incorrectly
Error:indicate that it is *not* an inner class.

Afterwards I get errors when starting the app like following (ONLY with instant run enabled):

Question

What does that mean for me? That I have to clone all libraries that are mentioned in the big build error block and compile them locally instead of importing them via gradle?

Answer 1

What is happening is that you didn't define your own serialVersionUID for your serializable class and so the JDK compute its own. However the computed version differs when building with Instant-Run (IR) enabled vs disabled. So using a version of the app with IR will fail to reload serialized classes built without it since the UID is different.

The solution is to define your own serialVersionUID in all the classes that you serialize. It's best Java Serialization practice anyway
