dllist

✓ from dllist import dllist

✗ import dllist

Wrong: 'import dllist' gives you the module, not the function. Always import the function directly.

Lists all shared libraries loaded by the current process.

from dllist import dllist libs = dllist() for lib in libs: print(lib)

Debug

Known issues

breakingOn unsupported platforms, dllist() will raise an ImportError because the function is not defined (v2.0.0+). Previously it returned an empty list.

fix

Wrap import in try/except ImportError, or check platform support before calling.

affects: >=2.0.0

breakingIn v2.0.0 and later, if an error occurs in the underlying platform calls, an exception will propagate instead of silently returning an empty list.

fix

Wrap dllist() call in try/except to handle platform errors.

affects: >=2.0.0

deprecateddllist function will be part of Python 3.14 standard library. This package will become unnecessary.

fix

Migrate to stdlib 'dllist' from Python 3.14 standard library once available.

affects: >=2.0.0, <3.14

Errors

Common errors & fixes

ImportError: cannot import name 'dllist' from 'dllist'

If using an unsupported platform, the function is not defined in the module.

fix

Check platform support or use try/except ImportError: from dllist import dllist

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dllist'
