[Soot-list] Issue instrumenting java 8 bytecode

[Rashmi Mudduluru]

Hi,

I am using the latest version of soot to instrument java 8 bytecode.
I get the following error message:

  [java] Soot started on Sun Feb 08 16:23:30 IST 2015
     [java] java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed to convert

Does anyone know how this can be solved?

Thanks,
Rashmi.
