How to make multidex enabled on an Android project in Eclipse WITHOUT Gradle

I am building an Android application using Eclipse without Gradle. Whenever I run the application the following error occurs -

01-12 15:31:49.874: E/AndroidRuntime(8125): java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Lcom/google/android/gms/R$string; 01-12 15:31:49.874: E/AndroidRuntime(8125): at com.google.android.gms.common.internal.zzaj.(Unknown Source) 01-12 15:31:49.874: E/AndroidRuntime(8125): at com.google.firebase.FirebaseOptions.fromResource(Unknown Source) 01-12 15:31:49.874: E/AndroidRuntime(8125): at com.google.firebase.FirebaseApp.initializeApp(Unknown Source)

I think the error is because Multidex is not enabled. How can I enable it without gradle? Also any other possible reason for this error to come? Thank you

      <extensions>true</extensions>
      <configuration>
        <sdk>
          <platform>23</platform>
          <path>${user.home}/Library/Android/sdk</path>
        </sdk>
        <androidManifestFile>${project.basedir}/AndroidManifest.xml</androidManifestFile>
        <resourceDirectory>${project.basedir}/res</resourceDirectory>
