| dexdeps -- DEX external dependency dump |
| |
| |
| This tool dumps a list of fields and methods that a DEX file uses but does |
| not define. When combined with a list of public APIs, it can be used to |
| determine whether an APK is accessing fields and calling methods that it |
| shouldn't be. It may also be useful in determining whether an application |
| requires a certain minimum API level to execute. |
| |
| Basic usage: |
| |
| dexdeps [options] <file.{dex,apk,jar}> ... |
| |
| For zip archives (including .jar and .apk), dexdeps will look for a |
| "classes.dex" entry. |
| |
| Supported options are: |
| |
| --format={brief,xml} |
| |
| Specifies the output format. |
| |
| "brief" produces one line of output for each field and method. Field |
| and argument types are shown as descriptor strings. |
| |
| "xml" produces a larger output file, readable with an XML browser. Types |
| are shown in a more human-readable form (e.g. "[I" becomes "int[]"). |
| |
| --just-classes |
| |
| Indicates that output should only include a list of classes, as |
| opposed to also listing fields and methods. |
