Example

Here is an example program that prints out each shared library that is loaded in the process and the addresses where each of its segments are mapped into memory.

extern crate findshlibs;
use findshlibs::{Segment, SharedLibrary, TargetSharedLibrary};

fn main() {
    TargetSharedLibrary::each(|shlib| {
        println!("{}", shlib.name().to_string_lossy());

        for seg in shlib.segments() {
            println!("    {}: segment {}",
                     seg.actual_virtual_memory_address(shlib),
                     seg.name().to_string_lossy());
        }
    });
}

Supported OSes

These are the OSes that findshlibs currently supports:

  • Linux
  • macOS
  • Windows
  • Android
  • iOS

If a platform is not supported then a fallback implementation is used that does nothing. To see if your platform does something at runtime the TARGET_SUPPORTED constant can be used.
