[Soot-list] Any way to get a local (1-level) call graph?

[Eric Bodden]

Hello.

Since a couple of weeks* (you have to grab the latest SVN build from
http://plg.uwaterloo.ca/~olhotak/build/) there's two things you can
do:

1.) Code it yourself - should not be hard.
2.) Use Spark, probably in CHA mode, in combination with the
-allow-phantom-refs option. This option models all classes that Soot
cannot find on the classpath as empty "phantom classes". So if you
only supply the one class that you are interested in to Soot then you
should be obtaining that partial call graph you are looking for.

*  -allow-phantom-refs was broken for years but Syed Albiz, Patrick
Lam and I got this fixed a short while ago.
