Re: JavaCard support in Soot
Hi Ran,
I believe your patch file had been incoporated in the release 1.2.4
except we did not add the explicit command line option "--j2mp". Certainly
you can turn on the swith by assigning Main.isJ2ME the "true" value.
Please check the 1.2.4, let us know if it does not work on J2ME
with above config. Thanks you for your configuration again.
Cheers,
Feng
