Should the path analysis follow paths into external classes with the -followExternal option?

0

Following external paths may sometimes require a large amount of run-time memory, due to the large number of possible paths that can be taken by an application. If an application has no callbacks from external classes to internal classes, external paths need not be followed for a proper analysis of internal classes. However, if callbacks exist, then the analysis may miss some paths into the internal classes if -followExternal is not specified.
