[Soot-list] Question for Jimple code

[Alexandre]

Hi Byungkwon,

The dollar sign is used to represent nested classes (inner classes and 
anonymous classes).

For instance, for the following class:

class YourClass {
  // inner class example
  class YourInnerClass {
  }

  // anonymous class example
  void m() {
   Toto anonymous = new Toto () {
   };
}

, the Java compiler generates three classes:

1) YourClass -> regular class
2) YourClass$YourInnerClass -> "$ + name" for inner classes
3) YourClass$1 -> "$ + number" for anonymous classes

Cheers,
Alexandre
