How to check what symbols are defined in a .o files? .a files? and.so files in linux?

[yinglcs]

Hi,

How to check what symbols are defined in a .o files? .a files? and .so
files in linux? Is there any command to display symbols (e.g. method
names, class names)?

Thank you.

You may like to post such questions to comp.unix.programmer as this
question is not C++ specific.

For .o and .a lookup man nm.

and .so
files in linux? Is there any command to display symbols (e.g. method
names, class names)?

For .so lookup man readelf.

check out the man page for the nm command.

objdump can also be used.
