How to find to out the mode of compilation

Hi all,

I have library files of QT-3.3.7. The problem is i want to know in which mode this library has been generated.

Mode I mean whether it is a 32bit library or a 64 bit library.

So i want to know whether there is any way (command ) to know this type of modes in the binary files or the lib files.

Please give some suggestions to this.

thanks in advance
Vikram

HI Vikram:

See the manpages for:

# file

...if ELF64 then 64-bit

# chatr
# ldd

Regards!
