App crashes when built in Release with ProGuard/R8 enabled

[Bartlomiej Pater]

When app using SfAutoComplete is built in release configuration with r8 enabled it crashes when the flow reaches the component. Full crash log is attached. In short the system complains about:

• java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: crc64ad20ae01ed2194e1.CloseButtonView

It looks like you're using some obfuscated java code internally and r8 does not find direct reference to it. I can mitigate this by adding:

-keep class crc64ad20ae01ed2194e1.** { *; }

in proguard.config but that doesn't sound good as I expect that cryptic name can change in the future. What would be the proper solution for this?
