You cannot edit this class because its a decompiled class. When you clicked and opened the class, Android studio decompiled the .jar or .dex file on-the-fly to show you that class. You can edit only .java or .kt files. Not the decompiled .class file.

If you want to make some changes to the Jitsi Meet library you have two options -

  • Fork the repo -> Make change -> Create pull request -> Wait for it to be merged and use the new version.

Or

  • Import the whole library locally into your project as a new module -> Remove Jitsi library remote dependency -> Add dependency for local Jitsi library module -> Make whatever changes you want in the source code java/kotlin files.

  • As far as i get you mean; In Github Clone or Download -> Download Zip then In Android Studio -> File ->New->import project then go build gradle app -> dependencies: remove current lib and add forked module source ? – ceng Apr 21 '20 at 08:31
  • but the module name is not appear – ceng Apr 21 '20 at 09:23
  • did you add the module to your settings.gradle file? – vepzfe Apr 21 '20 at 09:34
  • rootProject.name='jitsimeet' include ':app', ':sdk' these are automatically added – ceng Apr 21 '20 at 09:37
  • in this link step 6 is not same as mine stackoverflow.com/a/32600942/3090120 module name is not appear – ceng Apr 21 '20 at 09:43
  • Oh that, you can ignore that. Module name is not imp. – vepzfe Apr 21 '20 at 09:56
  • Files are not appear also :( – ceng Apr 21 '20 at 10:02
  • Okay, so do this. Clone the repo to your system, copy the sdk folder to your project folder beside the app folder. Put `include ':app', ':sdk'` in settings.gradle and finally `implementation project(':androidlibrarymaster');`. This should work. Although you shouldnt need to be doing this since you shouldnt need to change the files of a library. This might not work since the Jitsi meet library seems to be dependent on other scripts and files as well. – vepzfe Apr 21 '20 at 10:22
