Also crashes in R8 version 8.5.35, 8.6.17, 8.7.2-dev

You cannot apply keep rules for classes synthesized by R8, but if you keep the implemented interfaces, the merging should not happen.

That said, checking the implementing class of a lambda might not be a good idea. The specification for java.lang.invoke.LambdaMetafactory says:

Capture may involve allocation of a new function object, or may return a suitable existing function object. The identity of a function object produced by capture is unpredictable, and therefore identity-sensitive operations (such as reference equality, object locking, and System.identityHashCode()) may produce different results in different implementations, or even upon different invocations in the same implementation.

If I understand this correctly the only guarantee is that the function object implements the interface(s) specified.

The actual problem is that R8 deletes FunInterface1 and FunInterface2 classes, which are used for runtime di:

fun hello() {
    val instance1 = FunInterface1 { println("Doing business") }
    val instance2 = FunInterface2 { println("Starting the show") }
    val map = mapOf(
        FunInterface1::class.java to instance1,
        FunInterface2::class.java to instance2,
    )
    check(map.size == 2) { "Map size is ${map.size}" }
}

So do I have to list all fun interfaces in my sdk using -keep? I might do that for ~100 of them that exist right now, but this won't save future developers from adding another fun interface and forgetting to list them in .pro file.

Not sure what the use case is here. However, if you want the interfaces to stay as is you will have to have a -keep rule for them. One option to handle this without adding a rule for each interface could be to annotate them and add a single rule for all interfaces annotated by that annotation.

Our use case is to create a static in-memory Di object, to put and get instances from all over the multi-module application. It kinda looks like https://github.com/InsertKoinIO/koin/, but is different. Here's sources:

class DiContainer(bindings: Map<Class<*>, SingletonBinding<*>>) {

    private val bindings: Map<Class<*>, SingletonBinding<*>> = HashMap(bindings)

    fun <T : Any> instance(typeSpec: Class<*>): T {
        @Suppress("UNCHECKED_CAST")
        val result: T = (bindings[typeSpec]?.lazy?.value) as? T ?: error("No binding for $typeSpec found.")
        return result
    }
}

class SingletonBinding<out T : Any>(private val singleton: () -> T) {
    val lazy = lazy { singleton() }
}

class DiScope {

    val bindings: MutableMap<Class<*>, SingletonBinding<*>> = HashMap()

    fun addBinding(typeSpec: Class<*>, binding: SingletonBinding<*>) {
        check(typeSpec !in bindings) { "$typeSpec already registered." }
        bindings[typeSpec] = binding
    }
}

open class DiHolder {

    @Volatile
    @PublishedApi
    internal var instance: DiContainer? = null

    protected fun build(init: DiScope.() -> Unit) {
        check(instance == null) { "Di already initialized" }
        instance = DiContainer(DiScope().apply(init).bindings)
    }

    inline fun <reified T : Any> instance(): T = instance(T::class.java)

    fun <T : Any> instance(typeSpec: Class<*>): T = instance!!.instance(typeSpec)
}

object Di : DiHolder() {
    operator fun invoke(init: DiScope.() -> Unit) = build(init)
}

Now, when we use this, for example:

fun hello() {
    Di {
        addBinding(FunInterface1::class.java, SingletonBinding { FunInterface1 { println("Doing business") } })
        addBinding(FunInterface2::class.java, SingletonBinding { FunInterface2 { println("Doing business") } })
    }
    // In some other place in code, but in the same process
    Di.instance<FunInterface1>().doBusiness()
    Di.instance<FunInterface2>().startTheShow()
}

Now we can get an interface instance from anywhere in the app, because Di is singleton. However, when running release with R8 full mode, I get this exception:

I also tried koin, and somehow their code arrangement dodges the type check, and everything works.

Oh, I see now, by default their allowOverride = true, and it just produces warning into logger instead of crashing the application.

// These are reduced InsertKoinIO/koin sources

class InstanceRegistry {

    val instances = ConcurrentHashMap<String, SingleInstanceFactory<*>>()

    fun saveMapping(mapping: String, factory: SingleInstanceFactory<*>) {
        if (instances.containsKey(mapping)) {
            throw Exception("Already existing definition for ${factory.beanDefinition} at $mapping")
        }
        instances[mapping] = factory
    }

    inline fun <reified T> instance(): T {
        return instances[T::class.getFullName()]?.get() as T
    }
}

class SingleInstanceFactory<T>(val beanDefinition: () -> T) {

    private var value: T? = null

    private fun getValue(): T = value ?: error("Single instance created couldn't return value")

    fun get(): T {
        synchronized(this) {
            if (value == null) {
                value = beanDefinition.invoke()
            }
        }
        return getValue()
    }
}

fun KClass<*>.getFullName(): String = this.java.name

/// --------------

fun helloKoin() {
    val koin = InstanceRegistry()

    val shouldR8CrashTheApp = true
    if (shouldR8CrashTheApp) {

        koin.saveMapping(FunInterface1::class.getFullName(), SingleInstanceFactory { FunInterface1 { println("Do business") } })
        koin.saveMapping(FunInterface2::class.getFullName(), SingleInstanceFactory{ FunInterface2 { println("Start the show") } })

    } else {
        // because in runtime FunInterfaces are clamped into one class, only one saveMapping is called, and everything works
        val mappings = hashMapOf<String, SingleInstanceFactory<*>>()
        mappings[FunInterface1::class.getFullName()] = SingleInstanceFactory { FunInterface1 { println("Do business") } }
        mappings[FunInterface2::class.getFullName()] = SingleInstanceFactory { FunInterface2 { println("Start the show") } }

        mappings.forEach { (mapping, factory) ->
            koin.saveMapping(mapping, factory)
        }
    }

    koin.instance<FunInterface1>().doBusiness()
    koin.instance<FunInterface2>().startTheShow()
}

It would also be nice, if R8 Full Mode documentation at least mentioned about horizontal class merging, and that with full mode you can no longer rely on Class comparisons, such as FunInterface1::class.java == FunInterface2::class.java and setOf(FunInterface1::class.java, FunInterface2::class.java).size == 2

Also, is there a way to disable this optimization only for my classes? Or can I only remove all optimizations via -keep, allowobfuscation, allowshrinking class_names?

Turned out the issue was an interplay between the vertical class merging and sharing of synthesized lambda classes. This should be fixed and you can try a build from HEAD with the fix by merging the following into your settings.gradle or settings.gradle.kts:

pluginManagement {
    buildscript {
        repositories {
            mavenCentral()
            maven {
                url = uri("https://storage.googleapis.com/r8-releases/raw/main")
            }
        }
        dependencies {
            classpath("com.android.tools:r8:f5c7414f6891c90f375215f6e3e84db42435f0f6")
        }
    }
}

I have the same problem on my Pixel 4XL, usually only happens in the text messaging app. I have my UI in Dark Mode.
