You can use file
and objdump
on Linux. In particular, you can look at whether file says “stripped” or “not stripped” (under my Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
, whether an executable is compiled with -g
or not shows not stripped
with file
command. But the one with -g
, shows with debug_info,
in addition to that), and whether objdump --syms
outputs anything useful (for me, it says “no symbols” for a regular build).
