    copied!<p>I'm developing an Android app that requires multiple libraries (for Facebook, Google Maps v2 and Quickblox among others), resulting in a method amount overflow that goes over the 64K limit:</p> <pre><code>Unable to execute dex: method ID not in [0, 0xffff]: 65536 Conversion to Dalvik format failed: Unable to execute dex: method ID not in [0, 0xffff]: 65536 </code></pre> <p>As I can't do without any of those libraries, I looked for a solution for the method limit bug. I found a popular blog entry from Android Developers, where a source code division is recommended. (The blog entry I'm talking about can be found here: <a href="http://android-developers.blogspot.com.es/2011/07/custom-class-loading-in-dalvik.html">http://android-developers.blogspot.com.es/2011/07/custom-class-loading-in-dalvik.html</a>). I've been trying this solution with no success.</p> <p>The problem I have now is that the biggest amount of code is not in my app itself, but in the required libraries, so I have to spread those libraries among the different dex files I must load in my app. My knowledge of Ant is very limited, and what I'd like to know is what I should write in my build.xml file to make dex copy each library where I want:</p> <pre><code> &lt;!-- Primary dex to include my source code and some libraries. --&gt; &lt;copy todir="${out.classes.absolute.dir}.1" &gt; &lt;fileset dir="${out.classes.absolute.dir}" &gt; ... &lt;/fileset&gt; &lt;/copy&gt; &lt;!-- Secondary dex to include some other libraries. --&gt; &lt;copy todir="${out.classes.absolute.dir}.2" &gt; &lt;fileset dir="${out.classes.absolute.dir}" &gt; ... &lt;/fileset&gt; &lt;/copy&gt; </code></pre> <p>Any help would be truly appreciated. Thanks in advance, kind regards!</p>
