I try to use the library byte-buddy.  
Located here:  
[https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/net.bytebuddy/byte-buddy/1.9.2](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/net.bytebuddy/byte-buddy/1.9.2)

In VSCode it works fine but now I want to use it in processing.  
When dragging it on a sketch (so it comes in the code folder) and then running I get:

> The package “META” does not exist. You might be missing a library

I unzipped the jar and looked for “META” all I founded is:

`<manifestFile>${project.build.outputDirectory}/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF</manifestFile>`

But there are a lot of binary files.

Does someone know how I can find if this is a processing bug, or some miss configuration of the `.jar`?
