how to handle jar without main-class
chennbnbnb opened this issue · 3 comments
as I know, Tai-e need to specify entry class by option -m <main-class>.
but for some jar library eg: jdk1.8, there isn't main class to be specified,
I wonder how to handler this case to carry out analysis
To be more specific, I want to carry out cg analysis on jdk1.8 through Tai-e framework. To compare this framework and flowdroid which one is better.
I'm new to static analysis, your response will help me a lot
If you want to analyze JDK8, at least one method (and this method is reachable from entry method(s)) in your classes calls the method of JDK8.
Besides, -m <main-class> is not a required option. But it helps Tai-e to find a main method (public static void main(String[] args)) as entry method. If you need to specify some custom entry methods by your own strategy, see #9 (comment).
Hi, after many days of thinking, I believe analyzing java component which don't have explicate entry method is diff from analyzing common java programs, this assignment need a new algorithm. it's not Tai-e's problem, so I will close this issue, thanks
