I'm trying to add dependency for multidex, but I have issue with Android Support Repository inside my Android Studio project.
dependencies {
implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
}
When i try to compile the project the following error occurs:
Could not find method implementation() for arguments [com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3] on object of type org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.dsl.dependencies.DefaultDependencyHandler.
Please install the Android Support Repository from the Android SDK Manager.
Open Android SDK Manager
But the Android Support Repository is installed.
So what should be the issue?
Try adding multiDexEnabled true in your build.gradle. It will be like this:
android {
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
}
dependencies {
implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3'
}
I have cloned a repository that contains api "com.github.xxx:$yyy_zzz". I understand that the $ symbol captures the latest build or version of the project. But when I try to use it in my own project, the gradle build says that Could not get unknown property 'yyy_zzz'. What should I do to implement it correctly?
$variable_name is a variable declared and exported.
in your project build.gradle do the follow:
buildscript {
ext.support_version = '27.1.1'
...
}
and then, in your app build.gradle file, you can declare dependencies like this:
dependencies {
...
implementation "com.android.support:design:$support_version"
...
}
please help, I can't build my project if I add firebase remote config to it.
I've three product flavors, and I added these dependdencies to be able to support back to api level9
indexLegacyCompile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:9.6.1'
indexLegacyCompile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:9.6.1'
indexLegacyCompile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:9.6.1'
if I remove these lines I can build the project.
For my normal flavor I added play services and remote config like this:
indexCompile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:10.2.6'
indexCompile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:10.2.6'
indexCompile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:10.2.6'
indexCompile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-config:10.2.6'
anyway here are all my dependencies: https://pastebin.com/EPRYyKH6
and here is my main gradle file: https://pastebin.com/tq7QZ9Hw
and full build.gradle(app): https://pastebin.com/R2k0Lagp
How can I solve it?
Probally the problem that is over 64k methods https://developer.android.com/studio/build/multidex.html
add this code on your gradle , try it:
android {
defaultConfig {
...
minSdkVersion 15
targetSdkVersion 25
//add this line
multiDexEnabled true
}
...
}
dependencies {
//add this dependencies
compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
}
Hope it works for you.
I am trying to integrate Google sign in, in my app, I added these libraries:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-identity:8.1.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-plus:8.1.0'
Also add this to project build gradle:
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:1.4.0-beta3'
Also add plugin to app build gradle:
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
then add required permissions
but when I try to run my app, received this error:
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithDexForDebug'.
com.android.build.transform.api.TransformException: com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException:
org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command 'C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0\bin\java.exe'' finished with non-zero exit value 2
Try adding multiDexEnabled true to your app build.gradle file.
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
EDIT:
Try Steve's answer first. In case it happens frequently or first step didn't help multiDexEnabled might help. For those who love to dig deeper here is couple similar issues (with more answers):
:app:dexDebug ExecException finished with non-zero exit value 2
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:dexDebug'. com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException
Another thing to watch for, is that you don't use
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.3.0'
That will import ALL the play services, and it'll only take little more than a hello world to exceed the 65535 method limit of a single dex APK.
Always specify only the services you need, for instance:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-identity:8.3.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-plus:8.3.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:8.3.0'
I just had to Clean my project and then it built successfully afterwards.
This error began appearing for me when I added some new methods to my project. I knew that I was nowhere near the 65k method limit and did not want to enable multiDex support for my project if I could help it.
I resolved it by increasing the memory available to the :app:transformClassesForDexForDebug task. I did this by specifying javaMaxHeapSize in gradle.build.
gradle.build
android {
...
dexOptions {
javaMaxHeapSize "4g" //specify the heap size for the dex process
}
}
I tried this after having had no success with other common solutions to this problem:
Running a project clean
Manually deleting the /app/build and /build directories from my project
Invalidating Gradle Cache and restarting Android Studio
Error
Error:Execution failed for task
> ':app:transformClassesWithDexForDebug'.
com.android.build.api.transform.TransformException:
com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException:
org.gradle.process.internal.ExecException: Process 'command
'/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java''
finished with non-zero exit value 1
Note: increasing the memory available to the DEX task can cause performance problems on systems with lower memory - link.
I also faced similar issue in Android Studio 1.5.1 and gradle 1.5.0.
I just have to remove unwanted libraries from dependencies which may be automatically added in my app's build.gradle file.
One was : compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.4.0'.
So for best practices try to only include specific play services library like for ads include only
dependencies {
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:8.4.0'
}
Although
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
this will also solve the issue, but provides with a lot of Notes in gradle console, making it confusing to find the other real issues during build
you can see the documentation of Android
android {
compileSdkVersion 21
buildToolsVersion "21.1.0"
defaultConfig {
...
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 21
...
// Enabling multidex support.
multiDexEnabled true
}
...
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.0'
}
Manifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.android.multidex.myapplication">
<application
...
android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication">
...
</application>
</manifest>
I'm using AS 1.5.1 and encountered the same problem. But just cleaning the project just wont do, so I tried something.
clean project
restart AS
Sync Project
This worked with me, so I hope this helps.
At my case change buildToolsVersion from "24" to "23.0.2", solve the problem.
In my case the Exception occurred because all google play service extensions are not with same version as follows
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-plus:9.8.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-appinvite:9.8.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:8.3.0'
It worked when I changed this to
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-plus:9.8.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-appinvite:9.8.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:9.8.0'
I resolved it with the next:
I configured
multidex
In build.gradle you need to add the next one.
android {
...
defaultConfig {
...
// Enabling multidex support.
multiDexEnabled true
...
}
dexOptions {
incremental true
maxProcessCount 4 // this is the default value
javaMaxHeapSize "2g"
}
...
}
dependencies {
...
compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
...
}
Add the next one in local.properties
org.gradle.parallel=true
org.gradle.configureondemand=true
org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
After that into Application class you need to add the Multidex too.
public class MyApplication extends MultiDexApplication {
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
//mas codigo
}
#Override
protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
super.attachBaseContext(base);
MultiDex.install(this);
}
}
Don't forget add the line code into Manifest.xml
<application
...
android:name=".MyApplication"
...
/>
That's it with this was enough for resolve the bug:
Execution failed for task ':app:transformClassesWithDexForDebug.
Check very well into build.gradle with javaMaxHeapSize "2g" and the local.properties org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m are of 2 gigabyte.
I had same problem when i rolled back to old version via git, and that version had previous .jar library of one 3rd party api, and for some reason turned out that both jar of the same sdk, just different versions were in /libs folder.
First Delete intermediates files
YOUR APP FOLDER\app\build\intermediates
OR
Clean your project and then rebuild.
Thent add
multiDexEnabled true
i.e.
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
It's work for me
I solved this issue by change to use latest buildToolsVersion
android {
//...
buildToolsVersion '26.0.2' // change from '23.0.2'
//...
}
A helpful answer if all above didn't work for you.
Go to your app gradle file,
Check all the dependency versions are mentioned with proper version code rather than any relative value like (com.example.demo:+)
Previous - implementation 'com.google.api-client:google-api-client-android:+'
After - implementation 'com.google.api-client:google-api-client-android:1.30.0'
If you are using the latest gradle version ie classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.5.0' and classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:1.4.0-beta3', then try updating the latest support respository from the SDK manager and rebuild the entire project.
If you need add this reference for cordova plugin add next line in your plugin.xml file.
<framework src="com.android.support:support-v4:+" />
If the different dependencies have a same jar also cause this build error.
For example:
compile('com.a.b:library1');
compile('com.c.d:library2');
If "library1" and "library2" has a same jar named xxx.jar, this will make such an error.
It happened to me because of Eclipse memory leak. I had to restart my computer.
I changed a couple of pngs and the build number in the gradle and now I get this. No amount of cleaning and restarting helped. Disabling Instant Run fixed it for me. YMMV
I had the same option and as soon as I turned off Instant run, it worked fine on my API16 device, but on the API24 device it worked fine with Instant run.
Hope this helps someone having the same issue
Simply go to Build - Edit Build Types - Properties Tab - Build Type Version and downgrade it to ver 23.0.1. Click ok.
This works for android studio 1.5.
It worked for me.
the write answer is in gradle put
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
then application name in manifest
android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication"
wish this answer is hellpful to some one
this code solved problem
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
For easiest way to implement google sign in visit: google sign in android
Also try
dexOptions {
javaMaxHeapSize "4g"
}
Also keep same version number for different services.
I solved this issue by adding:
In build.gradle:
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
in local.properties ,
org.gradle.jvmargs=-XX\:MaxHeapSize\=512m -Xmx512m
mention dependency:
compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
Clean and Rebuild.
Incase 'Instant Run' is enable, then just disable it.
when i want to sync gradle i get this error:
Error:Access to the dex task is now impossible, starting with 1.4.0
1.4.0 introduces a new Transform API allowing manipulation of the .class files.
See more information: http://tools.android.com/tech-docs/new-build-system/transform-api
When i click the link, i don't find any solution.
Anyone have solution thanks.
set your gradle version explicitly to 1.3.0 in dependencies section of build.gradle file
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.3.0'
As suggested in other answers, downgrade is one option. But, it is not a solution. As asked by David Argyle Thacker, what if we actually want to use a newer version (of gradle build tool)?
I was having same trouble while upgrading gradle tool version in one of my projects. So, I did following and voila, it worked.
Update all the libraries (dependencies from Google Play Services and Support libraries along with other SDKs used) to the max available version. If you are using NewRelic, then update to the latest version.
Add multiDexEnabled true to the defaultConfig in /app/build.gradle.
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 16
targetSdkVersion 23
versionCode 1
multiDexEnabled true
}
Remove all the code you have previously written to get MultiDexing to work.
For instance,
Remove the afterEvaluate block for MultiDex
afterEvaluate {
tasks.matching {
it.name.startsWith('dex')
}.each { dx ->
if (dx.additionalParameters == null) {
dx.additionalParameters = []
}
dx.additionalParameters += '--multi-dex'
// this is optional
// dx.additionalParameters += "--main-dex-list=$projectDir/multidex-classes.txt".toString()
}
}
Remove multidex dependency
dependencies {
...
compile 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.1'
}
Remove the code from AndroidManifest.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.pcsalt.multidex">
<application
...
android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication">
...
</application>
</manifest>
If you are using custom Application class by extending android.app.Application, then remove MultiDex.install(base);
#Override
protected void attachBaseContext(Context base) {
super.attachBaseContext(base);
MultiDex.install(base);
}
Update the build tool version to 2.1.2 (highest stable version available at the time of writing) in /build.gradle
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.2'
Gradle Sync the project, by clicking Sync now
Hope this helps.

Try downgrading your gradle version to 1.3.0
