using authcheck in MacOS or Linux

First, compile the AuthCheck's source, use the following Maven command for that in the context of ./SootAnalysis directory.
$ mvn package

Then, compile demo/example application by using the following Maven command in the context of ./Spring_Examples/demo directory.
$ mvn package

There are two ready-made configuration files configuration.json and input.json in ./SootAnalysis directory, which are used for demo analysis of the example application existing in the source. The former file contains various settings for the analysis and the latter contains the input model needed for the analysis.

Before running the authcheck on MacOS or Linux, the configuration.json file needs to be modified according to your settings; the attributes jceJarPath and rtJarPath must include your Java Home path.

After that, in the contex of ./SootAnalysis directory, the following command can be used to execute authcheck:
$ java -cp target/Soot-Analysis-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar de.fraunhofer.iem.authchecker.Checker configuration.json

After the successful execution of the above command, the analysis will create the report.html in the ./report directory, which will contain results and suggestions about the analysis.
