[Soot-list] identifying Jimple statement types

[Phil Pratt-Szeliga]

Hi Yitzhak

I usually find working with instanceof is the best way to go. When
your doing that, try to interact with the interfaces rather than the
concrete Jimple classes. There is also soot.jimple.StmtSwitch and
soot.jimple.JimpleValueSwitch when you need to cover every single type
available (I use these when cross compiling Jimple to CUDA).

I've looked at code samples in soot.jimple.toolkits.base and I've seen consistent use of instanceof. Is this the recommended way? Or, is there some visitor pattern, etc.?
