Hi Lokesh.

Yes, sure. That's the main data structure that FlowDroid supports. The textual output indeed won't help you much, though. FlowDroid provides callbacks instead, which notify you of any flows found. That's usually how people use the tool.

> Also is FlowDroid is good option for getting Data dependency or is there any other option better than this?

There are other tools but FlowDroid is certainly one of the most stable and thorough ones.

Cheers,
Eric
