dllist

2.0.0 verified Fri May 01 auth: no python

List the shared libraries loaded by the current process. Version 2.0.0 is the latest, which aligns with the upcoming addition to Python 3.14 standard library. Release cadence is low.

pip install dllist

Common errors

error ImportError: cannot import name 'dllist' from 'dllist' ↓

cause If using an unsupported platform, the function is not defined in the module.

fix

Check platform support or use try/except ImportError: from dllist import dllist

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dllist' ↓

cause Package not installed.

fix

Run 'pip install dllist'

Warnings

breaking On unsupported platforms, dllist() will raise an ImportError because the function is not defined (v2.0.0+). Previously it returned an empty list. ↓

fix Wrap import in try/except ImportError, or check platform support before calling.

breaking In v2.0.0 and later, if an error occurs in the underlying platform calls, an exception will propagate instead of silently returning an empty list. ↓

fix Wrap dllist() call in try/except to handle platform errors.

deprecated dllist function will be part of Python 3.14 standard library. This package will become unnecessary. ↓

fix Migrate to stdlib 'dllist' from Python 3.14 standard library once available.

Imports

dllist
wrong
```
import dllist
```
correct
```
from dllist import dllist
```
Wrong: 'import dllist' gives you the module, not the function. Always import the function directly.
