Android Question After Updating SDK, app will no longer compile.

[Kevin Hartin]

A couple of days ago, I thought to try the Beta release and in doing so I had to update some SDK stuff. Since then my main app under development will no longer compile.

First it would timeout, so I raised the timeout from 60 to 120, now it seems to be running out of memory (full error output attached) with about 60 warnings all similar to...

warning: Ignoring InnerClasses attribute for an anonymous inner class
(org.apache.log4j.xml.DOMConfigurator$2) that doesn't come with an
associated EnclosingMethod attribute. This class was probably produced by a
compiler that did not target the modern .class file format. The recommended
solution is to recompile the class from source, using an up-to-date compiler
and without specifying any "-target" type options. The consequence of ignoring
this warning is that reflective operations on this class will incorrectly
indicate that it is *not* an inner class.

and finally culminating in

I have tried uninstalling everything and starting again, but end up with the same issue.

I am at my wits end on this, as I have to roll out the final release of my app early next week.

Thanks,
Kev

SOLVED I increased the MaxRamForDex to 2048

I would set it to 4096

I would set it to 4096

I will keep that in mind, but it seems fine and quicker???
