[Soot-list] Loading a class using soot

[Maxime Van de Reyd]

Hi, everybody

I try to Load a java class and to explore the structure created by soot.
But when I try to get the method body using getActiveBody() I get an
error when the method contains exception code (it seems to be so, but
I'm not sure that's the problem)

To illustrate my problem I attached the class I use to make my tests.
This class can load and explore itself without problem but when i
uncomment the code (lines 45->53) i get an Exception [1]

I use the precompiled jars from soot version 2.2.1 found on [2] and java
version "1.4.2_01"

I'd also like to be able to load jimple files. Can it be done from a
Scene ? I tried with soot.jimple.Parser without success.

Your help will be greatly appreciated,

Maxime Van de Reyd
