Eventbus: Unable to start activity - Subscriber classes and its super classes have no public methods with the @Subscribe notation

[rahulkulhalli]

I'm developing an Android application using EventBus to asynchronously post objects to other classes. However, while running the application, EventBusException says the following:

Subscriber class meetup.be2015.gcm_meetup.MapClass and its super classes have no public methods with the @Subscribe annotation

I have posted the two activities on StackOverflow. You can find them here.

Can someone help me? I'm stuck for a long time, and I can't seem to find a workaround at all!

I answered it on stackoverflow, hope it helps :)

[privatez]

@Subscribe
public void onEventMainThread(UploadOrderEvent event) {
}

Check you methods is't private? Just change it be public.

[wingoku]

@elsennov No it doesn't help because you didnt link your stackoverflow answer here

[william-ferguson-au]

@wingoku he didn't need to because the previous poser had already added the link.
Here it is again http://stackoverflow.com/a/35912503/493682

[greenrobot-team]

Closing as solved on Stackoverflow. -ut

I am getting this error even after making onEvent() method public. And I am running this in debug mode.

This bug can be reopened, since all @Subscribe methods gets deleted by using R8, no matter of proguard rules. All subscribe methods are public.

shrinkResources true
            minifyEnabled true

[aqsaShahid-zameen]

I am facing the same issue after
minifyEnabled true
no matter what the pro guard rules

[Duna]

you didn't set the path to proguard rules in gradle file
