Cannot decorate AndroidDriver (probably the same for IOSDriver

[bhecquet]

Description

I'm trying to use the decorator mechanism provided by selenium 4.
But following the doc to decorate the android driver, I get the exception

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Invisible interface type interface io.appium.java_client.android.HasAndroidSettings for class net.bytebuddy.renamed.java.lang.Object$ByteBuddy$Eik9i4kq

Full stacktrace is below

As I understand, this is due to the fact that HasAndroidSettings is not public

Environment

• Java client build version or git revision if you use some snapshot: 8.0.0-beta2
• Appium server version or git revision if you use some snapshot: 1.18.1
• Desktop OS/version used to run Appium if necessary: Windows 10
• Node.js version (unless using Appium.app|exe) or Appium CLI or Appium.app|exe: Appium.exe
• Mobile platform/version under test: android
• Real device or emulator/simulator: android simulator

Details

Code To Reproduce Issue [ Good To Have ]

UiAutomator2Options options = new UiAutomator2Options();
AndroidDriver mobileDriver = new AndroidDriver(new URL("http://appiumServer:4723/wd/hub"), options);
new EventFiringDecorator(new MyListener()).decorate(mobileDriver);

mobileDriver is correctly created, but applying decoration fails with the stacktrace

Link To Appium Logs

Appium logs are not relevant as the problem resides in java_client

Yes, it makes sense to make these interfaces public. Please let us know if there are any other hidden ones that must be published

[bhecquet]

It seems that only HasAndroidSettings and HasIOSSettings are private

The patch has been published. You could try the change by fetching the recent build from jitpack as described in https://github.com/appium/java-client#maven
