[Soot-list] retrieving pointers to an object

[Bodden, Eric]

Hi Peter.

I think you have to traverse the PAG manually. AFAIK there is no predefined API.

Cheers,
Eric

I'm basically looking for the inverse operation of PAG.reachingObjects(..). A very inefficient way would be to go through each pointer, get its PointsToSet, call this method, and see if the result intersects with the PointsToSet of interest, but I'm looking for something faster and more convenient.
