title: NoClassDefFoundError exception when trying to use SOOT
body: <p>I'm trying to use SOOT to generate call graphs. However when I pass it some class to be analyzed, the exception NoClassDefFoundError is being thrown. I'm using the following two tutorials to be able to execute some of the commands:
  <a href="http://www.brics.dk/SootGuide/sootsurvivorsguide.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.brics.dk/SootGuide/sootsurvivorsguide.pdf</a> and <a href="http://www.bodden.de/2008/08/21/soot-command-line/#obtaining" rel="nofollow">http://www.bodden.de/2008/08/21/soot-command-line/#obtaining</a>.</p>
  
  <p>I have placed the java source code to be analyzed in the same classpath of the SOOT. So when i'm about to execute, i used the "." to specify the current directory. The following is the command I'm executing:</p>
  
  <pre><code>java -cp jasminclasses-2.5.0.jar:sootclasses-2.5.0.jar:plyglot-1.3.5.jar:.soot.Main -cp . MainFrame
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The same error is being generated even if I leave the -cp out and just call the MainFrame immediately.</p>
  
  <p>does anyone know why this kind of exception is being thrown?</p>
