when i remove this jar file it's working fine. if it has in libs not able to run the application. Why i am getting this error.? what is the sollution for this..

Answer 1

Since the error is trouble writing output: Too many methods: 70205; max is 65536, "the sollution for this" is to reduce your method count by about 10%.

Usually this is the fault of having too many JARs with too many methods, though it is certainly conceivable that you wrote tens of thousands of methods yourself.

Try to find some JAR that you do not need and remove it. For example, you can use ProGuard to report the dead code within your app -- perhaps there is a dependent JAR of some library that the library ordinarily needs, but the way you happen to use the library is not needed.

ProGuard itself can also be used just to remove that dead code from your app, without all the normal obfuscation stuff. However, this is not part of the normal build process, so you'd have to somehow cook up an Ant script for this.
