[Soot-list] Display Strings Used in method invocation

[Alan Kash]

Hi All,

First of all, kudos to the whole community of Soot for creating this 
wonderful piece of software. I am new to Soot, and program analysis in 
general. I am instrumenting an Android application by following, *"Instrumenting 
Android *and *Java Applications *as *Easy *as *abc" by S. Arzt et. al., *which 
has lot of useful information. I want to display all the string values that 
are passed in method invocation, how can I do this? I have some preliminary 
code that checks the StringConstant usage below.

for (Value va : iv.getInvokeExpr().getArgs()) {
                System.out.println("[ARGS : TYPE] " + va.getType() + " with 
");
                
                if (va instanceof StringConstant) {
                    System.out.print(va + " ");
                } else if (va instanceof JimpleLocal) {
                    JimpleLocal jl = (JimpleLocal) va;
                    if (jl.getType() instanceof RefType) {
                        RefType rt = (RefType) jl.getType();
                        SootClass cls = rt.getSootClass();
                        String clsName = cls.getName();
                        // recursion possible - backward analysis ?
                        if(clsName.equals("java.lang.String")){
                            System.out.print("GOT STRING CLASS - HOW TO GET 
THE VALUE ?");
                        }
                    }
                }
            }

Any pointers are of great help.

Thanks,
Alan
