Hi, This is regarding the dexdump collected. Can you please ellaborate a bit on the below mentioned queries.
1) registers_size description: the number of registers used by this code. >>>>Query: How many registers are available in total?? 2) ins_size description: the number of words of incoming arguments to the method that this code is for. >>>>Query: Can you please ellaborate this a bit?? 3) outs_size description: the number of words of outgoing argument space required by this code for method invocation >>>>Query: Can you please ellaborate this a bit?? Also, you had mentioned in ur last reply "Stack and heap are runtime changes, and are tricky to determine by simply looking at the DEX"........Which information in dex dump is actually talking about memory in bytes/KB etc?? can you please refer them?? I thank u once again for your time and patience. Thanks. Best Regards, Zhubham. ********************************* On Apr 15, 4:53 am, fadden <[email protected]> wrote: > On Apr 13, 7:21 pm, Sahil Arora <[email protected]> wrote: > > > (1) what is the size of code that actually goes inside the mobile phone to > > the DVM?? > > The entire DEX file is installed on the device.
