Re: [abc-users] Obtaining SootMethods from PerSetupAdvice

Hi Eric,

Thanks for your reply! My problem is that I'm not sure how to access
this method pre-weave (I'm performing this analysis as a compiler pass
after JIMPLIFY_DONE). Currently I use:

abc.main.Main.v().getAbcExtension().getGlobalAspectInfo().getWeavableClasses();

to find SootClasses, set them as ApplicationClasses and call
Scene.v().loadClass so I can get access to the methods they define.
However, using this technique, no methods called abc$perThisBind are
visible to analyse.

Thanks again,
Nath
