## CONFORMING TO

The pldd command is not specified by POSIX.1. Some other systems have a similar command.

## EXIT STATUS

On success, pldd exits with the status 0. If the specified process does not exist, the user does not have permission to access its dynamic shared object list, or no command-line arguments are supplied, pldd exists with a status of 1. If given an invalid option, it exits with the status 64.

## EXAMPLE

    $ echo $$               # Display PID of shell
    1143
    $ pldd $$               # Display DSOs linked into the shell
    1143:	/usr/bin/bash
