[Soot-list] How to have whole-program analysis run from non-main() methods

[berber]

Hi Jiaqi,

which are the issues you have observed? Some days ago I tried to 
construct a call-graph, using Spark, for a program with custom 
entry-points and observed, that there were several calls missing. I used 
some non-static methods as entry points and Spark were not able to 
resolve all calls starting from this particular class. Especially calls 
within the class were missing (perhaps Spark did not have any 
information about "this").

Would be glad, if you could share the experiences you made.
