SHLIST(8)		  BSD System Manager's Manual		     SHLIST(8)

NAME
     shlist - list shared libraries required by a binary

SYNOPSIS
     shlist [-a] file

DESCRIPTION
     The shlist utility examines an executable binary file and lists the names
     of shared libraries required to execute the binary.  If a file is not an
     executable binary file, or if a file does not require any shared li-
     braries, shlist produces no output for that file.	When the -a flag is
     given, it will list the addresses where each of the libraries will be
     mapped in addition to the name information, if address information is
     available.

SEE ALSO
     cc(1),  ldd(1),  shlicc(1),  mkshlib(8),  shlib(8)

BUGS
     It's a feature (I think) that shlist considers the dynamic linker to be a
     shared library.

     Shlist does not verify that a shared library exists, nor does it recurse
     to check dependencies of shared libraries.	 For dynamically linked pro-
     grams, you can use ldd(1) to check for these things.

     Shlist assumes, perhaps incorrectly, that any interpreted ELF executable
     without a dynamic segment must use BSD/OS statically linked shared li-
     braries.
