[Soot-list] Android instrumentation: No main class given. Inferred [..] as main class.

[José Leal Domingues Neto]

Hi Eric,

Thank you for the answer. WIthout the -w options I receive the following:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: This operation
requires resolving level SIGNATURES but
android.animation.PropertyValuesHolder is at resolving level HIERARCHY
If you are extending Soot, try to add the following call before calling
soot.Main.main(..):
Scene.v().addBasicClass(android.animation.PropertyValuesHolder,SIGNATURES);
Otherwise, try whole-program mode (-w).

If I add the above, it keeps complaining about other classes.

Best,
José
