Did u found the root cause of the issue? got solution? post it if so. – Quade

Sorry my friend, I passed to Realm it's a perfect database than GreenDao,I advice you to use it ! Have a nice day. – Marga

Can u provide a link for trying out realm? like a snippet for CRUD operations – Quade

try this link www.realm.io – Marga

Friend, are u using MAC or windows? i need realm browser for windows, unfortunately for windows realm not supporting browser, if u are using windows then tell me how to handle the browsing part? – Quade

Sorry my friend, I use Mac. – Marga

Fine friend, i got the solution though Stetho-realm for Android, its supporting realm browser from chrome browser inspection. – Quade

nice, if you want any information text me at : [email protected] – Marga

Answer 1

I add the proguard-rules below.

-keep class xxx.dao.**{*;}

(xxx is the packageName where I put the DAO class file.)

It works for me.

Thank you! for me it doesn't need .dao. – Sides

Answer 2

------ property declare like this ------

public class FolderDao extends AbstractDao<Folder, Long> {
public static final String TABLENAME = "FOLDER";
private DaoSession daoSession;

public static class Properties {
    public static final Property FolderPath = new Property(8, String.class, "folderPath", false, "FOLDER_PATH");
    public static final Property FolderSourceId = new Property(5, Long.class, "folderSourceId", false, "FOLDER_SOURCE_ID");
    public static final Property Id = new Property(0, Long.class, "id", true, "_id");
    public static final Property IsCamera = new Property(3, Boolean.class, "isCamera", false, "IS_CAMERA");
    public static final Property IsHidden = new Property(7, Boolean.class, "isHidden", false, "IS_HIDDEN");
    public static final Property IsUserCreated = new Property(6, Boolean.class, "isUserCreated", false, "IS_USER_CREATED");
    public static final Property Name = new Property(1, String.class, "name", false, "NAME");
    public static final Property Source = new Property(4, Integer.class, "source", false, "SOURCE");
    public static final Property UserType = new Property(2, String.class, "userType", false, "USER_TYPE");
}

public FolderDao(DaoConfig daoConfig) {
    super(daoConfig);
}

public FolderDao(DaoConfig daoConfig, DaoSession daoSession) {
    super(daoConfig, daoSession);
    this.daoSession = daoSession;
}

if you don't write public so occur error like Caused by: de.greenrobot.dao.DaoException: Could not init DAOConfig or static than Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to read from field 'int de.greenrobot.dao.Property.ordinal' on a null object reference
