MultiDexExtractor in wrong dex file

问题

I have an app that is too big to fit into one dex file so I'm using multidex. It works fine when i create it on certain machines, but when i create it on another one, the app crashes on some devices, not all (crashes on Note 2, works on Nextus 6).

8519-8519/? E/AndroidRuntime﹕ FATAL EXCEPTION: main

I decompiled the APK, and found that the MultiDexExtractor class is in classes2.dex instead of classes.dex where it should be.

I thought gradle v1.0.0 and above is placing all the classes in the correct dex automatically? Any ideas?

In the gradle file, i've added

compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'

in the dependencies and

multiDexEnabled true

in the default config

Then in the Application file:

@Override
public void onCreate() {
    MultiDex.install(this);
    super.onCreate();
}

I'm using the android build tools 22.0.1

And here are my gradle versions:

$ ./gradlew --version

First, mutidex recent version is 1.0.1, so I'd suggest updating your dependency. Second, you did not show whole Application class but unless you really know you need what you have now, I'd suggest extending android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication so you do not need to bother all the init as MultiDexApplication would take care of this. I had no problems with MultiDex with my apps, but I am extending android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication myself.
