Unable to execute dex: Multiple dex files define Lcom/myapp/R$array;

Question

Since updating to ADT 14 I can no longer build my project. It was building fine prior to updating.

The error:

Answer 1

My problem was resolved after cleaning up some directories and files left over from the previous versions of the tools. ADT Rev 14 changes where binaries are stored. I deleted the entire bin directory, restarted Eclipse and cleaned the build and forced a rebuild. That seemed to do the trick initially but the problem came back after the next run.

I finally discovered that my bin directory was included in the project build path. I excluded bin from the build path and repeated the steps above. This resolved my problem.
