, variable-length (see below)LEB128
LEB128 ("Little-Endian Base128") is a variable-length encoding for arbitrary signed or unsigned integer quantities. The format was borrowed from theDWARF3 specification. In a .dex
file, LEB128 is only ever used to encode 32-bit quantities.
Each LEB128 encoded value consists of one to five bytes, which together represent a single 32-bit value. Each byte has its most significant bit set except for the final byte in the sequence, which has its most significant bit clear. The remaining seven bits of each byte are payload, with the least significant seven bits of the quantity in the first byte, the next seven in the second byte and so on. In the case of a signed LEB128 (sleb128
), the most significant payload bit of the final byte in the sequence is sign-extended to produce the final value. In the unsigned case (uleb128
), any bits not explicitly represented are interpreted as0
.

bit13bit12bit11bit10bit9bit8bit7The variant uleb128p1
is used to represent a signed value, where the representation is of the valueplus one encoded as auleb128
. This makes the encoding of-1
(alternatively thought of as the unsigned value0xffffffff
) — but no other negative number — a single byte, and is useful in exactly those cases where the represented number must either be non-negative or-1
(or0xffffffff
), and where no other negative values are allowed (or where large unsigned values are unlikely to be needed).
Here are some examples of the formats:

The classes must be ordered such that a given class's superclass and implemented interfaces appear in the list earlier than the referring class.dataubyte[]data area, containing all the support data for the tables listed above. Different items have different alignment requirements, and padding bytes are inserted before each item if necessary to achieve proper alignment.link_dataubyte[]data used in statically linked files. The format of the data in this section is left unspecified by this document; this section is empty in unlinked files, and runtime implementations may use it as they see fit.Bitfield, String, and Constant Definitions
DEX_FILE_MAGIC
embedded in header_item
The constant array/string DEX_FILE_MAGIC
is the list of bytes that must appear at the beginning of a.dex
file in order for it to be recognized as such. The value intentionally contains a newline ("\n"
or0x0a
) and a null byte ("\0"
or 0x00
) in order to help in the detection of certain forms of corruption. The value also encodes a format version number as three decimal digits, which is expected to increase monotonically over time as the format evolves.
ubyte[8] DEX_FILE_MAGIC = { 0x64 0x65 0x78 0x0a 0x30 0x33 0x35 0x00 } = "dex\n035\0"
Note: At least a couple earlier versions of the format have been used in widely-available public software releases. For example, version009
was used for the M3 releases of the Android platform (November-December 2007), and version013
was used for the M5 releases of the Android platform (February-March 2008). In several respects, these earlier versions of the format differ significantly from the version described in this document.
ENDIAN_CONSTANT
and REVERSE_ENDIAN_CONSTANT
embedded in header_item
The constant ENDIAN_CONSTANT
is used to indicate the endianness of the file in which it is found. Although the standard.dex
format is little-endian, implementations may choose to perform byte-swapping. Should an implementation come across a header whoseendian_tag
is REVERSE_ENDIAN_CONSTANT
instead ofENDIAN_CONSTANT
, it would know that the file has been byte-swapped from the expected form.
uint ENDIAN_CONSTANT = 0x12345678;uint REVERSE_ENDIAN_CONSTANT = 0x78563412;
NO_INDEX
embedded in class_def_item
and debug_info_item
The constant NO_INDEX
is used to indicate that an index value is absent.
Note: This value isn't defined to be 0
, because that is in fact typically a valid index.
Also Note: The chosen value for NO_INDEX
is representable as a single byte in theuleb128p1
encoding.
uint NO_INDEX = 0xffffffff; // == -1 if treated as a signed int

MUTF-8 (Modified UTF-8) Encoding
As a concession to easier legacy support, the .dex
format encodes its string data in a de facto standard modified UTF-8 form, hereafter referred to as MUTF-8. This form is identical to standard UTF-8, except:
- Only the one-, two-, and three-byte encodings are used.
- Code points in the range
U+10000
…U+10ffff
are encoded as a surrogate pair, each of which is represented as a three-byte encoded value. - The code point
U+0000
is encoded in two-byte form. - A plain null byte (value
0
) indicates the end of a string, as is the standard C language interpretation.
The first two items above can be summarized as: MUTF-8 is an encoding format for UTF-16, instead of being a more direct encoding format for Unicode characters.
The final two items above make it simultaneously possible to include the code pointU+0000
in a stringand still manipulate it as a C-style null-terminated string.
However, the special encoding of U+0000
means that, unlike normal UTF-8, the result of calling the standard C functionstrcmp()
on a pair of MUTF-8 strings does not always indicate the properly signed result of comparison ofunequal strings. When ordering (not just equality) is a concern, the most straightforward way to compare MUTF-8 strings is to decode them character by character, and compare the decoded values. (However, more clever implementations are also possible.)
Please refer to The Unicode Standard for further information about character encoding. MUTF-8 is actually closer to the (relatively less well-known) encodingCESU-8 than to UTF-8 per se.

There are several kinds of item in a .dex
file which ultimately refer to a string. The following BNF-style definitions indicate the acceptable syntax for these strings.
SimpleName
A SimpleName is the basis for the syntax of the names of other things. The.dex
format allows a fair amount of latitude here (much more than most common source languages). In brief, a simple name may consist of any low-ASCII alphabetic character or digit, a few specific low-ASCII symbols, and most non-ASCII code points that are not control, space, or special characters. Note that surrogate code points (in the rangeU+d800
…U+dfff
) are not considered valid name characters, per se, but Unicode supplemental charactersare valid (which are represented by the final alternative of the rule forSimpleNameChar), and they should be represented in a file as pairs of surrogate code points in the MUTF-8 encoding.

but is intended to be an easy form to use to iterate over an entire file. A given type may appear at most once in a map, but there is no restriction on what order types may appear in, other than the restrictions implied by the rest of the format (e.g., aheader
section must appear first, followed by astring_ids

The state machine consists of five registers. The address
register represents the instruction offset in the associatedinsns_item
in 16-bit code units. Theaddress
register starts at0
at the beginning of each debug_info
sequence and may only monotonically increase. Theline
register represents what source line number should be associated with the next positions table entry emitted by the state machine. It is initialized in the sequence header, and may change in positive or negative directions but must never be less than1
. Thesource_file
register represents the source file that the line number entries refer to. It is initialized to the value ofsource_file_idx
inclass_def_item
. The other two variables,prologue_end
andepilogue_begin
, are boolean flags (initialized tofalse
) that indicate whether the next position emitted should be considered a method prologue or epilogue. The state machine must also track the name and type of the last local variable live in each register for theDBG_RESTART_LOCAL
code.
The header is as follows:

System annotations are used to represent various pieces of reflective information about classes (and methods and fields). This information is generally only accessed indirectly by client (non-system) code.
System annotations are represented in .dex
files as annotations with visibility set toVISIBILITY_SYSTEM
.
dalvik.annotation.AnnotationDefault
appears on methods in annotation interfaces
An AnnotationDefault
annotation is attached to each annotation interface which wishes to indicate default bindings.
dalvik.annotation.EnclosingClass
appears on classes
An EnclosingClass
annotation is attached to each class which is either defined as a member of another class, per se, or is anonymous but not defined within a method body (e.g., a synthetic inner class). Every class that has this annotation must also have an InnerClass
annotation. Additionally, a class may not have both anEnclosingClass
and anEnclosingMethod
annotation.
dalvik.annotation.EnclosingMethod
appears on classes
An EnclosingMethod
annotation is attached to each class which is defined inside a method body. Every class that has this annotation must also have anInnerClass
annotation. Additionally, a class may not have both anEnclosingClass
and an EnclosingMethod
annotation.
dalvik.annotation.InnerClass
appears on classes
An InnerClass
annotation is attached to each class which is defined in the lexical scope of another class's definition. Any class which has this annotation must also haveeither anEnclosingClass
annotationor anEnclosingMethod
annotation.
null
.accessFlagsintthe originally declared access flags of the class (which may differ from the effective flags because of a mismatch between the execution models of the source language and target virtual machine)dalvik.annotation.MemberClasses
appears on classes
A MemberClasses
annotation is attached to each class which declares member classes. (A member class is a direct inner class that has a name.)
dalvik.annotation.Signature
appears on classes, fields, and methods
A Signature
annotation is attached to each class, field, or method which is defined in terms of a more complicated type than is representable by atype_id_item
. The.dex
format does not define the format for signatures; it is merely meant to be able to represent whatever signatures a source language requires for successful implementation of that language's semantics. As such, signatures are not generally parsed (or verified) by virtual machine implementations. The signatures simply get handed off to higher-level APIs and tools (such as debuggers). Any use of a signature, therefore, should be written so as not to make any assumptions about only receiving valid signatures, explicitly guarding itself against the possibility of coming across a syntactically invalid signature.
Because signature strings tend to have a lot of duplicated content, a Signature
annotation is defined as anarray of strings, where duplicated elements naturally refer to the same underlying data, and the signature is taken to be the concatenation of all the strings in the array. There are no rules about how to pull apart a signature into separate strings; that is entirely up to the tools that generate.dex
files.
dalvik.annotation.Throws
appears on methods
A Throws
annotation is attached to each method which is declared to throw one or more exception types.
