SCO comp.unix.sco.programmer FAQ.: How do I determine what dynamic libraries an application depends upon?

	SCO comp.unix.sco.programmer FAQ. : SCO Development Environments. : How do I determine what dynamic libraries an application depends upon?
	The "ldd" command will tell you, assuming that the application's library paths are already set up (either by the way it is built, or because LD_LIBRARY_PATH specifies the paths). But frequently this is not the case, so use the "dump -Lv" command on the application executable and look for "NEEDED" entries. These are the dynamic libraries the executable depends upon. Repeat the command for these libraries, recursively, and you'll find all the dynamic library dependencies. jls@sco.com
