I'm developing a small qt app that uses libvlc libraries to provide video playback functionality, but the problem I met is that it needs much time to load all the libraries at first time playback is launched.
So there's the question - is there any ability to trace the process of loading libraries? (It's better to show some kind of "Loading..." window to user.)
Rather than monitoring the loading, you can simply trigger loading those libraries during program start. This will make it invisible to your users, because people expect a program to take a second or two to load anyway.
An easy way to do this might be to call libvlc_new() when your program is starting up.
