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

I have several library projects with the same package name specified in the AndroidManifest (so no duplicate field names are generated by R.java). I had to remove any permissions and activities from the AndroidManifest.xml for all library projects to remove the error so Manifest.java wasn't created multiple times. Hopefully this can help someone.
