i get executionexception and large heap error

Question

For faster builds, increase the maximum heap size for the Gradle daemon to more than 3072 MB.

To run dex in process, the Gradle daemon needs a larger heap.

To do this set org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx3072M in the project gradle.properties. It currently has approximately 989 MB.

Specifies the JVM arguments used for the daemon process. The setting is particularly useful for tweaking memory settings. Default value: -Xmx10248m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8

For faster builds, increase the maximum heap size for the Gradle daemon to more than 5120 MB.

To run dex in process, the Gradle daemon needs a larger heap.

Answer 1

You should add javaMaxHeapSize in build.gradle section .

android {
compileSdkVersion //
buildToolsVersion //


dexOptions {
    javaMaxHeapSize "4g"
}

You can visit for more information Android Gradle: What is javaMaxHeapSize “4g”?

Answer 2

Add android:largeHeap="true" in your MenifestFile in application tag.
