Multidex for android builds?

Solar2D Native builds
#1

Hello,

I have many libraries in Android and I get the dex function overflow error  (see this: https://medium.com/@mustafa01ali/dexs-64k-limit-is-not-a-problem-anymore-well-almost-2b1faac3508 )

There are proposed solutions but since the build process is managed by Corona I can’t really implement them.

Do you have something pre-built about that ? Or any workaround or a way to modify things manually to enable multidex build?

Hi,

I just wanted to contribute to the discussion. I would also like to get multi-dex support working with the ant build system and Corona Enterprise. This is a question that is also asked in the forums here. 

There are indeed ways to implement multi-dex support in ant. See the answers shown in the link, particularly #2 of the “checkmarked” answer. They involve updating the build.xml file.

But our build.xml file is already set up to build Corona Enterprise properly. So integrating these two things is pretty non-trivial, and we were wondering if anyone has any insight, guidance, or experience into doing so. 

Thanks in advance!
