There might even be a docmented API listing all functions and their arguments. Use that too.
There is.
You *PROBABLY* have some kind of exsiting interface to this .so file in the first place, or it wouldn't be useful. If you have the .h file, use that. If you have some kind of Perl or C interface, use that.
No, i have to make one.
If you have NONE of those, you probably are trying to violate some kind of license. Don't do that. :-v
Not realy, i have to pay for the .so and the sdk, 400,00 bucks, not sheep.
I guess php will be no good them, i think i will go with java for interface with so and desktop, php will be web. If i remember php is good to go with java. Just to make sure the .so reads some biometric sensor for digitals.
Tks for time.

I'm pretty sure you need the wrapper functions.
If you didn't then all the other libraries wouldn't have them. And they all have them.
So you must need them.
You may be able to get the names of the functions that are in that .so file using:
strings whatever.so | less
There will be a bunch of junk at the start and the end, but the function names will be there, in a block, eventually.
Then you'll need some kinda documentation on what those functions do and what arguments they take.
