DependencyWalker

Introduction

Walk through the dependencies of a shared library loaded in Julia, similarly to what Dependency Walker does with shared libraries on your system.

Installation

This package is registered, so you can install it by entering the package manager mode in the REPL with the ] key and running the command

add DependencyWalker

Usage

The package exports a single function, Library, which takes as only argument the path to the shared library:

julia> using DependencyWalker, LibSSH2_jll

julia> LibSSH2_jll.libssh2_path # Path to the libssh2 library
"/home/user/.julia/artifacts/26c7d3a6c17151277018b133ab0034e93ddc3d1e/lib/libssh2.so"
