[Soot-list] How to read Java 5 annotations?

[Marc-Andre Laverdiere-Papineau]

Hello,

I am reading this tutorial: 
http://www.sable.mcgill.ca/soot/tutorial/addattributes/index.html

It says near the end that Java attributes get 'lost' along the way. Is 
there a way to read them anyway in soot?

If I were to parse a java file to jimple, would the Java 5 annotations 
be kept in the Jimple format?

Which subclass of Tag would be used to record those? Is there any 
particular encoding I need to worry about?

Regards,
