Answer 1

this question was asked and an issue was created in 2014: https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/TIMOB-18082

however, it is not resolved. (Under Titanium SDK 5.1.1.GA)

I met this problem today, and my solution is:

remove the unnecessary jar files!

Those jar files was referred by some java class, has huge methods ( more than 1k) but it will not be used at run time, so removing them will not cause app crash nor throw exceptions.

This is not an final solution, but kinda of trick. whatever, it works for me.
