[Soot-list] Dynamic Code Loading

[Mansour Ahmadi]

Thanks, Steven!

I can understand the worst cases of dynamic code loading techniques. I was
just wondering to know if Soot can handle the easiest one, like if an apk
loads another apk from its assets (as a common way).
I will investigate the literature.

Thanks again.

Best,
Mansour
