cannot build any sketch after android studio install error code d8 classes too large for dex file

Open paulgoux opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

after a simple install of androis studio and android mode in processing, any build fails with the following error message

ERROR:D8: Cannot fit requested classes in a single dex file (# methods: 131430 > 65536) com.android.builder.dexing.DexArchiveMergerException: Error while merging dex archives: The number of method references in a .dex file cannot exceed 64K.

in processing previous iteration those were the steps required to build. I'm using lenovo ideaflex pad 5, with ryzen architecture, on windows 10.

It does provide a how to resolve this issue, but its out of the scope of my understanding.

@paulgoux are you using processing-android as 3rd party lib in android studio or just trying to setup processing in andoid studio ?

For referrence: setup processing-android

Thanks !
