is not found in

Error message

${methodName}${desc} is not found in ${superClassInternalName}

What it means

Thrown by ASMClass.addDelegatorMethod: the superclass loaded successfully but does not declare the method (name + descriptor) the delegator is supposed to forward to, so there is nothing to delegate and instrumentation fails.

Solutions

1. Verify the method name and parameter types match a method actually declared in the superclass (not just a subtype)
2. Correct the plugin's delegator method specification
3. Instrument the class that truly declares the method instead

When it happens
