[Soot-list] Main entry points

Thank you again for the quick responses to previous emails. The
Hierarchy class has saved quite a lot of time of my life!
Another question: is there any method to retrieve all the application
classes that contain a 'main' method? I mean, my analysis will have 2
modes: 'library', in which all public methods can be considered as entry
points, and 'main', in which only the mains of the application classes
can be considered as entry points.
I found Scene.getMainClass, but it returns a SootClass (instead of a
List) and since there is no Javadoc about it, it's not clear to me which
criteria does the method use to choose that main class. For example, if
we run
soot -f n -output-dir ./ilciao_lib/ -app examples.Qsort
jolden.voronoi.Voronoi
, then the main class returned by Scene.getMainClass is examples.Qsort
If we invert the order of the parameters
soot -f n -output-dir ./ilciao_lib/ -app jolden.voronoi.Voronoi
examples.Qsort
, then the main class returned by Scene.getMainClass is
jolden.voronoi.Voronoi
Is there an API method to get both classes (AND ANY OTHER APPLICATION
CLASS CONTAINING A MAIN) or should I just iterate over the public
methods looking for those whose definition match with the one of main?
Thanks!
