Android: Changing a Original View class

How can i edit a View class?

I want to change methods used by a GestureOverlayView , i opened the GestureOverlayView.java file (obtained by jumping inside of it from the Debugger) but nothing that i change is actually executed. Is there any way to edit the class, or a better way like Overriding certain methods?

The specific change that i want to implement is no waiting delay after a "Single" gesture has been performed (It normally waits 700ms, so the user can make another stroke (theoretically) even when the mode is set to "Single" instead of "Multiple"). There also isn´t any method inside that helps me change that.

Thanks.

Yes, you can subclass it like any normal Java class and Override the methods you want to change.

public class MyGestureOverlayView extends GestureOverlayView {
    ...
    @Override 
    public void cancelGesture() {
        // Add your own implementation 
    }
}
