cryptic error with inherited classes? about parceler HOT 8 CLOSED

I am getting this error. Please help fix it asap.

warning: Ignoring InnerClasses attribute for an anonymous inner class
(org.parceler.apache.commons.collections.BeanMap$10) that doesn't come with an
associated EnclosingMethod attribute. This class was probably produced by a
compiler that did not target the modern .class file format. The recommended
solution is to recompile the class from source, using an up-to-date compiler
and without specifying any "-target" type options. The consequence of ignoring
this warning is that reflective operations on this class will incorrectly
indicate that it is not an inner class.

Right, we should probably log a specific error if a non-concrete class is annotated with @Parcel.

Also, it looks like we missed parceling fields in super classes... that will have to be added.

By the way, I was able to generate and use an @Parcel that extended from an abstract class, albeit without the super classes' fields being serialized. Can you give any more details around this?

from parceler.

I get that cryptic error even w/o using @parcel on an abstract class.

I found the error finally...in one of the subclasses of the abstract class, I had added a List of classD (this class also uses only simple data types like String and int) objects as one of the properties and didn't mark class D w/ @parcel. But when I fixed this, I got this even more cryptic error :-P

Im not sure what that error is... I'm not sure its due to Parceler.

I've pushed out an update with inheritance support (28b889d) under 0.2.7-SNAPSHOT. Feedback is appreciated.

Might be a question for @ducrohet and the build tools team. Never seen a dex merge error before...

from parceler.

I believe this is fixed, reopen if this comes up again.

@shilu-stha you're running into the dex method limit. Unrelated to this library.
