android中使用codec总是报NoSuchMethodError的问题根源

该问题在StackOverflow上有人给出了解决方案,但是更重要的是,下面有一个哥们给出了造成问题的原因分析!

原问题的地址是:http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9126567/method-not-found-using-digestutils-in-android

给出的问题解决方法是:

I ran into the same issue trying to use DigestUtils in my Android app. This was the best answer I could find by searching, but I was reluctant to rebuild the .jar file with the namespace changed. After spending some time on this issue, I found an easier way to solve the problem for my case. The problem statement for my code was

String s = DigestUtils.md5Hex(data);

Replace this statement with the following and it will work:

String s = new String(Hex.encodeHex(DigestUtils.md5(data)));

Similarly, for shaHex exampl, you can change it to

String hash = new String(Hex.encodeHex(DigestUtils.sha("textToHash");

This works because even though Android does not have encodeHexString(), it does have encodeHex(). Hope this would help others who run into the same issue.


然后底下纷纷有人留言疑惑虽然解决了问题,但是原因是啥?终于大神出现了,给出了他的回答:

Since there's no clear answer for the root cause of this problem, I'd like to clarify what's happening here.

Why the NoSuchMethodError is thrown in the first place?

According to exception stack trace, the line that causes the fault is 226 in DigestUtils#md5hex method. Let's see what we have there (I'm assuming you have used version 1.4, since this is the only release where Hex#encodeHexString method is being invoked in line 226):

public static String md5Hex(String data) {
    return Hex.encodeHexString(md5(data));
}

The exception says java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Hex.encodeHexString.Let's understand why.

First of all, Android framework already includes the Commons Codec library (except the DigestUtils class). Yes, it is not exposed as part of the Android SDK and you cannot use it directly. But you still want to use it. So what you do? You add Commons Codec library as part of your application. The compiler doesn't complain - from his point of view everything was fine.

But what happens at runtime? Let's follow your exception stack trace:
First, you're calling DigestUtils#md5Hex from your Activity's onCreate method. As I wrote above, the framework doesn't include that class, so DigestUtils (from Commons Codec version 1.4) is loaded from your dex.
Next, md5hex method tries to invoke Hex#encodeHexString method. Hex class is part of the Commons Codec library that included in framework. The thing is that its version is 1.3 (ancient release from July 2004). Hex class exists in boot classpath, which means that the runtime will always favor it instead of the Hex class that packaged inside your dex. You can see warnings about it in your application logs when you start your app (with Dalvik runtime):

D/dalvikvm? DexOpt: 'Lorg/apache/commons/codec/binary/Hex;' has an earlier definition; blocking out
I/dalvikvm? DexOpt: not resolving ambiguous class 'Lorg/apache/commons/codec/binary/Hex;'
D/dalvikvm? DexOpt: not verifying/optimizing 'Lorg/apache/commons/codec/binary/Hex;': multiple definitions
I/dalvikvm? Could not find method org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Hex.encodeHexString, referenced from method org.apache.commons.codec.digest.DigestUtils.md5Hex

Hex#encodeHexString method was introduced in version 1.4 of Commons Codec library and therefore it doesn't exist in framework's Hex class. The runtime can't find this method and thus throws NoSuchMethodError exception.

Why the accepted answer's solution works?

String s = new String(Hex.encodeHex(DigestUtils.md5(data)));

First, DigestUtils#md5 method is called. As I already stated, DigestUtils class that will be used is the one that packaged in your dex. This method doesn't use any other Commons Codec classes, so no problem with it.

Next, Hex#encodeHex will be called. The Hex class that will be used is the framework's one (version 1.3). The encodeHex method (that takes a single parameter - byte array) exists in version 1.3 of Commons Codec library, and therefore this code will work fine.

What would I suggest?

My suggested solution is to rename the classes namespace/package. By doing so I'm explicitly specifying which code is going to execute, and prevent bizarre behavior that may occur because of versioning issues.

You can do it manually (as Caumons wrote in his answer), or automatically with jarjar tool.

See this issue summary and tips for using jarjar in my blogpost.

其根本原因在于android内置了一个Codec库,但是版本过老(1.03),如果使用了外部引入的新版本的codec.jar中的DigestUtils执行方法的时候,DigestUtils优先加载的是系统自带的老版本的codec库中相应的方法,当老版本的安卓自带codec.jar中不包含新版本DigestUtil需要的方法时,就产生了异常!
