exec java $javaOpts -jar "$jarpath" "$@"

[casidiablo]

I see... you have to read the README https://github.com/casidiablo/multidex It says what to edit.

Here is how it looks mine: exec java $javaOpts -jar "$jarpath" --multi-dex "$@"

[DavidPerezIngeniero]

Mine looks like so:

exec java $javaOpts -jar "$jarpath" --multi-dex --main-dex-list=/path/multidex.txt "$@"

As of PR #3 patching of the script that calls dx should not be necessary anymore.

[sschuberth]

Closing this as the README file was updated with instructions on how to modify the build.gradle file instead of patching the dx script.
