[Soot-list] How could I get the assignment statement of a "static final" field with soot?

[Bernhard Berger]

Hi,

the optimization of static final fields is already done by the compiler. If you use javap to decompile the byte code  you will find that the value is already inlined. The byte code also tells that there is a Constant attribute assigned to the field. Perhaps you can use the Tag-API of Soot to fetch the value.

Cheers, Bernhard

I tried to find it in the "<clinit>" method. However, when I got the units in "<clinit>" method, I couldn't find the assignment for the "final static TEST_FIELD". More weird, if I delete the definition of "public static int TEST_FIELD2 = 100", I cannot even get the "<clinit>" method by API "SootClass.getMethodByName()".
