android-multidex

The page http://developer.android.com/tools/building/multidex.html#testing advises dependencies { compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1' androidTestCompile 'com.android.support:multidex-instrumentation:1.0.1' } android { defaultConfig { multiDexEnabled true testInstrumentationRunner "android.support.multidex.MultiDexTestRunner" } } But that produces a ClassNotFoundException when the tests are run. The API documentation and dexdump show that there is com.android.test.runner.MultiDexTestRunner. So if I disbelieve the documentation and instead specify dependencies { compile 'com.android

I have tried to set jumboMode in gradle for my project, it seems able to solve the following DexIndexOverflowException: com.android.dex.DexException: Cannot merge new index 65536 into a non-jumbo instruction! DexIndexOverflowException: Cannot merge new index 65772 into a non-jumbo instruction! 1) What is jumboMode option actually does behind the scene? android { ... dexOptions { jumboMode true } } 2) I also notice that enabling multi-dex can solve the same problem as well, what is the right choice between these two approaches? android { ... defaultConfig { ... multiDexEnabled true } } "Jumbo"

I'm getting Multiple dex files define error in my project. I'm using these two tags in build.gradle as well dexOptions { preDexLibraries = false } defaultConfig { multiDexEnabled true } but still getting this error.

I just released my app to the Google Play Store, and the signed apk was published successfully. However, (and I've tried this on three different phones and tablets), the app refuses to install when downloaded from the store. After clicking the "Install" button, the app will download, the status will change to "Installing..." and then the following dialog appears: What can be done? Facts about my app that could help troubleshooting: The app is targeting API22 with a minSDK of 17. I'm not using proguard. The app is using multidex via the multidex support library. app/build.gradle: buildscript {

I recently discovered the new MultiDex functionality from Android for working with apps having more than 65,000 references. See: https://developer.android.com/tools/building/multidex.html Can someone help me understand the following questions: 1) How does the Gradle build plugin determine what to put in the primary dex file (classes.dex) vs the secondary dex files? Based on the doc there are certain things required to be in primary dex but it doesn't give any examples. Are all activities required to be in the primary dex file? Quoted Text: There are complex requirements regarding what classes

I'm trying the new MultiDex Support on my app and so far I've managed to compile my app correctly, but when running it, I get the following exception: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate application android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/me.myapp.main-2.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app-lib/me..main-2, /vendor/lib, /system/lib]] at android.app.LoadedApk.makeApplication(LoadedApk.java:507) at android.app.ActivityThread
