[Soot-list] use-original-names stopped working

[Manas Thakur]

Hi Patrick,

I explicitly gave the option “-g:vars” now with javac, and am able to get the variable names with Soot again. Thanks!

On a side note, I never used this option explicitly earlier and “use-original-names” used to work; probably the Java version got updated on my machine.

Regards,
Manas

I remember I was able to get the original names till yesterday. I haven’t changed the soot version or anything else. Any suggestions on what could I have done wrong?
