Library functions prototypes

ruskalym
Hi!

Is there a way to extract or guess a C function's prototype from a shared library (.so) if no related .h header is provided?

I suppose it is difficult to get the exact original prototype but I'd appreciate if I could obtain at least the amount of arguments and some clue about respective types of arguments and return value.

Rus.
