[Soot-list] running static analysis..

[Quentin Sabah]

Hi Zeinab, 

I think what you describe is the main use-case of Soot. Default behavior of Soot's "main loop" is to output final results to files, but you can skip that part and simply harvest Soot's results programmaticaly. 

You can embed several static analyses into a much larger project of yours. However I feel Soot's current design encourages you to embed your analysis into the framework (as phases and packs) more than the other way around: http://www.bodden.de/2008/11/26/soot-packs/
