Multiple dex files define

You're hitting the 64k method limit in Android. Checkout this doc on how to get around it. There's also a few issues with your dependencies which you might want to resolve.

[koocbor]

I know this is closed but I don't think the issue is the 64k limit - it's because the multidex merge fails because the appcompat-v7 library includes the android.arch.core:common:1.0.0 library and com.mapbox.mapboxsdk:mapbox-android-plugin-locationlayer:0.1.0 includes android.arch.core:core:1.0.0-alpha3.

I was able to get my project to build again once I added this:

implementation ('com.mapbox.mapboxsdk:mapbox-android-plugin-locationlayer:0.1.0') {
        exclude group: 'android.arch.core'
    }

As far as I can tell the locationlayer is still working.

[eric-hartwell]

I just ran into the same error using mapbox-android-navigation:0.6.2, and koocbor's fix works for the navigation SDK as well.

implementation ('com.mapbox.mapboxsdk:mapbox-android-navigation:0.6.2') {
     exclude group: 'android.arch.core' 
}

The mapbox-android-navigation library shouldn't depend on an alpha or beta version since that interfere's with gradle's automatic version reconciliation. Should I open a new Issue or will someone see this?

@eric-hartwell fwiw 0.7.0 was released with the latest stable versions
