Byte-Buddy android is throwing errors on android 14 java.lang.SecurityException: Writable dex file is not allowed

using Byte Buddy Android : ref offical link, never used it before.
is there any tutorial available for this?

code uses AndroidClassLoadingStrategy.Wrapping, which generates a .dex file in a writable location, typically in your app’s private directory (like /data/data/<your_app>), and attempts to execute it.
Android 10 and above enforce strict security policies to prevent apps from writing .dex or .jar files and executing them at runtime.

how can we use byte buddy android for the latest android versions?

    private fun runBuddyTest(context: Context) {

        val strategy = AndroidClassLoadingStrategy.Wrapping(applicationContext.getDir("generated", Context.MODE_PRIVATE))

// Create a dynamic type (subclass of Object) and modify the "toString" method
        val dynamicType = ByteBuddy()
            .subclass(Any::class.java)
            .method(ElementMatchers.named("toString"))
            .intercept(FixedValue.value("Hello World!"))
            .make()
            .load(this.javaClass.classLoader, strategy)
            .loaded

// Instantiate the dynamically created class and assert the "toString" method
        val instance = dynamicType.getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance()
        assert(instance.toString() == "Hello World!")
    }

getting this error
