Is there any way to know which symbols are exported in a object file?

Question

Hi I'm working in a Linux environment and I have to link to a object file already compiled which offers me some services (services.o) and I know some of them, but I'd like to know which are all of the exported symbols of it.

Is there any way to accomplish this not having the sources? If so, how?

Thanks you very much.

Answer 1

Try nm -- this tool is there for just this purpose.

Answer 2

Another option is objdump which also can show you a bunch of other stuff
