My Cordova project won't compiles after Installing Appodeal Plugins

Question

Everything goes fine with my project but it won't compiles if I include these Plugins

com.appodeal.plugin

com.appodeal.googleplayservices

PS: I'm following this tutorial step 2

Here the logs I get

:compileDebugJavaWithJavacNote: Some input files use or override a deprecated API.

I don't know about Java and details of Cordova native configs, I'm only web developer, sorry

Answer 1

I know it's a bit late to reply, but if anyone would have same problem, here is the solution:

cordova plugin add https://github.com/jwall149/cordova-multidex

Or you can also add the cordova plugin directly to the package.json

{
  "locator": "https://github.com/jwall149/cordova-multidex",
  "id": "cordova-multidex"
}
