About Android Jack library file

[light_cheng]

Hi All ,
Do you know if Findbugs plan to support JACK file (be generated by Java Android Compiler Kit) ?

I use Findbugs to scan my Android Java code , but I found in Android M project , some classes.jar files were be replaced by classes.jack and Findbugs can't scan the jack files ,although I can disable jack by set compiler option DEFAULT_JACK_ENABLED to false but I can't make sure if there any difference between JAR & JACK , so if Findbugs has no plan to support jack , I have to find another tool to look for bugs in my Java code.

Thanks,
Light

No.

Looking at https://source.android.com/source/jack.html#the_jack_library_format one can see that it does not generate anything FindBugs can understand (a container with *.class files).

Kind regards,
