```
public class DynComp
extends Object
```
This is the main class for DynComp. It uses the -javaagent switch to Java (which allows classes to be instrumented as they are loaded). This class parses the command line arguments and starts Java with the -javaagent switch on the target program. Code based largely on daikon.Chicory.
