[Soot-list] How to disable soot optimizations

[Eric Bodden]

Hi Delphine.

-p jb off will turn of the creation of Jimple bodies. That's the most
essential phase of Soot and cannot really be disabled.

Even when you disable all optimizations, you will still get class
files that have changes opposed to the original class files. That is
because Soot transforms everything to Jimple and then back to
bytecode.

The question to ask whether these changes matter to you. Normally they
should not matter.
