Method Detail

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

overwriteEquivalent

public boolean overwriteEquivalent(DexType field)

getType

public TypeReference getType()

toSoot

public Type toSoot()

Return the appropriate Soot Type for this DexType.

Returns:

the Soot Type

toSoot

public static Type toSoot(TypeReference type)

Return the appropriate Soot Type for the given TypeReference.

Parameters:

type - the TypeReference to convert

Returns:

the Soot Type

isWide

public static boolean isWide(TypeReference typeReference)

Return if the given TypeIdItem is wide (i.e. occupies 2 registers).

Parameters:

typeReference.getType() - the TypeIdItem to analyze

Returns:

if type is wide

toSootICAT

public static java.lang.String toSootICAT(java.lang.String type)

Seems that representation of Annotation type in Soot is not consistent with the normal type representation. Normal type representation would be a.b.c.ClassName Java bytecode representation is La/b/c/ClassName; Soot Annotation type representation (and Jasmin's) is a/b/c/ClassName. This method transforms the Java bytecode representation into the Soot annotation type representation. Ljava/lang/Class;>; becomes java/lang/Class>

Parameters:

type -

pos -

Returns:

toDalvikICAT

public static java.lang.String toDalvikICAT(java.lang.String type)

toSootAT

public static java.lang.String toSootAT(java.lang.String type)

Types read from annotations should be converted to Soot type. However, to maintain compatibility with Soot code most type will not be converted.

Parameters:

type -

Returns:

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
