[Soot-list] Using soot within a javaagent

[Prashant Deva]

Oops it seems like in my haste to keep the mail short and concise I didnt
check the stack trace well enough to notice it was the other portion of
code that was causing the issue.

Here is the full main class:

public static void main(String[] args)
{
 Options.v().allow_phantom_refs();
SootClass sootClass = Scene.v().loadClass("com.chtest.Snippet",
SootClass.BODIES);
 Body body = null;
 for (SootMethod method : sootClass.getMethods())
{
 if (method.getName().equals("foo"))
{
 if (method.isConcrete())
{
 body = method.retrieveActiveBody();
break;
 }
}
 }

System.out.println("**** Body ****");
 System.out.println(body);
System.out.println();

System.out.println("**** Blocks ****");
 BlockGraph blockGraph = new ExceptionalBlockGraph(body);
for (Block block : blockGraph.getBlocks())
 {
System.out.println(block);
 }
}


The crash happens at the line:
method.retrieveActiveBody();

if I dont call Scene.v().loadNecessaryClasses();
