Thread-topic: Checking if a shared library is in use...
I am working on an installer for a shared component. I want to check
whether any running programs are currently using a dylib in my component
so I can alert the user to exit the program before continuing with an
upgrade or deinstall. On Linux, Solaris, and HP-UX I can do this with
the fuser or lsof command line utilities. However, fuser is not
available on Mac and lsof doesn't appear to report libraries that are
loaded in memory as open files.
Is there another tool I can use to obtain this information?
