How do I view the list of functions a Linux shared library is exporting?
I want to view the exported functions of a shared library on Linux.
What command allows me to do this?
(On Windows I use the program depends)
What you need is nm
and its -D
option:
$ nm -D /usr/lib/libopenal.so.1
.
.
.
00012ea0 T alcSetThreadContext
000140f0 T alcSuspendContext
U atanf
U calloc
.
.
.
Exported sumbols are indicated by a T
. Required symbols that must be loaded from other shared objects have a U
. Note that the symbol table does not include just functions, but exported variables as well.
See the nm
manual page for more information.
objdump -T *.so
may also do the job
