How to make libs editable? Possible? (coding amateur)

I use the achartengine libs and downloaded the achartengine-1.0.0.jar from google. I imported the library into my code and recognized that I can ONLY read it but I'd like to apply some patches. How can I make a library editable?

I use Android Studio.

Solution

  • In the jar-File are only the compiled .class-Files, no .java-Files.

    If you want to edit or patch, you need the src-.java-Files. Here you can check out the SVN-Project:

    Here you can see the files, which you would need, if you want to edit the library:
