how to see shared objects code
 
Hi all,

what do you mean by "peep inside the shared objects"? if you want to see the original code then it's almost impossible to translate back to it (there's several tools for java).

doing a dissamble is easier but output is asm code.

check out the sources if there's open.

May be .. (examples)

hexedit /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
readelf -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6

.. if that is, what you want to watch.

objdump may be your friend.

I just tried:
objdump -Dslx /lib/libcap.so.2|more
but you want to look at the man page

another tool I use is strace (to debug system calls in a program execution). Not the same usage at all, but maybe you need that.
