NAME

g-ir-inspect - Typelib inspection tool

SYNOPSIS

g-ir-inspect [ OPTION …] --print-shlibs NAMESPACE
g-ir-inspect [ OPTION …] --print-typelibs NAMESPACE

DESCRIPTION

g-ir-inspect displays information about GObject-Introspection binary typelib files. In GLib 2.80 and later versions, it is superseded by
<gi-inspect-typelib(1)> .

On Debian-derived systems, each architecture provides a version of g-ir-inspect prefixed with the DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE from dpkg-architecture (1), for example arm-linux-gnueabihf-g-ir-inspect . These architecture-prefixed names use appropriate search paths for the given architecture, and should be used when cross-compiling. Please see <file:///usr/share/doc/gobject-introspection/README.Debian.gz> for more details.

OPTIONS

--print-shlibs

Show the shared libraries that implement the NAMESPACE .

--print-typelibs

Show the other typelibs that the NAMESPACE depends on.

--version VERSION

The version of each NAMESPACE to inspect. For example, the version of Gio-2.0.typelib is 2.0 . If not specified, use the newest available version if there is more than one installed.

EXAMPLE

On Linux, the Gio-2.0 typelib is implemented by libgio-2.0.so.0 :

$ g-ir-inspect --version 2.0 --print-shlibs Gio
shlib: libgio-2.0.so.0

and it depends on GObject-2.0, GLib-2.0 and GModule-2.0:

$ g-ir-inspect --version 2.0 --print-typelibs Gio
typelib: GObject-2.0
typelib: GLib-2.0
typelib: GModule-2.0
