Hi Vishal,

Are you trying to create a callgraph from a Java file, a Class file or an
APK file? You mention all three sources in your e-mail. Java and Class file
work out-of-the-box just as Marc-André wrote.

For APK files, you need to do some extra work since the Soot callgraph
creator needs an entry point, i.e. a main method. In Android applications,
such a main method does not exist since Android instead tightly integrates
applications into the OS using a lifecycle. Android applications implement
classes inherited from OS classes and then overwrite the lifecycle methods.
There are ways to handle this (AndroidEntryPointCreator in FlowDroid), so
feel free to ask if you need it.

Best regards,
  Steven

Hello Vishal,

One can build a call graph by running Soot from the command-line with the -w
option. In order to export and visualize the call graph, I recommend using
ProBe (http://plg.uwaterloo.ca/~olhotak/probe/)
