android release hangs forever at app:transformClassesAndResourcesWithR8ForRelease

See original GitHub issue

after upgrading my react-native app to version 0.60.5, the application works just fine in debugging mode but when i try to get the android release files of my app by running this command:

react-native run-android --variant=release

the progress gets stuck at this line:

> :app:transformClassesAndResourcesWithR8ForRelease

and hangs on forever

React Native version: 0.60.5

Steps To Reproduce

1.upgrade to react-native version 0.60.5 2.run react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res 3.then run react-native run-android --variant=release

Describe what you expected to happen: i would like to extract release files (apks) of my application.

note: i tried to delete the build and gradle folders and run ./gradlew clean but didn’t work either

Hi.

Try adding more memory to gradle: edit gradle.properties file and add

org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx4096m
