Support for classes

[GM12Tick]

The emulator currently support running files that contain the content of one single method.

Maybe its a good idea to start discussion about supporting classes, subclasses, and dynamic object-mappings created for each read file.

I think it supports one entire class, but not support calls to other classes created by you.

Well, the run function just runs the first function.. So now really..
Also static fields are not working.

Etc

Yep, my fault, I make a test to try it, I see it run the constructor so I assume it works, sorry xD

I think the focus should be put on supporting static classes and attributes only for now.

I have some work in progress toward this direction.

Class resolution across multiple files could indeed be implemented but this would be part of a larger effort but from what I've seen this is not really useful for deobfuscation purpose. Plus the degree of complexity is just ++.

Well, it would be good to have a discussion.
The real question is, do you think that smali emulator can replace the android emulator ? Be the python version for running apks :)

[drake-mer]

It would be very cool as an asymptotic goal.
Method resolution in an internal class is also a cool goal.

I have worked a bit toward class emulation and from what I did I can tell it is quite doable. I still need some thought for where to put the methods (in the vm, in the emulator, circular reference ?) but I can do it.
