[Soot-list] Getting a reference to Throwable object in Trap handler

[Steven Arzt]

Hi Naveen,

 

Soot is a static tool, so you can't get access to the runtime exception
object. You can only interpret the code of the program, not look at any real
object instances. There is no such thing as a runtime state in program
analysis. What you can do, though, is find out which lines can theoretically
throw a specific exception. 

 

Best regards,

  Steven

Betreff: [Soot-list] Getting a reference to Throwable object in Trap handler

 

Hello,

 

I would like to know if there is any way in which I can obtain a reference
to the throwable object being caught at the handler block of the trap.
Specifically, I would need this to check which line the exception was thrown
at. Please let me know if there is a way to access the throwable or some
other way in which I can obtain the exception thrown line number.

 

Thanks,

Naveen
