Command to Finding Source files for a library file


Does anyone know a command to find the source files (.c or .cpp) that were compiled to Build a lib.so file....

E.g.
there is a command called - ldd which tells you all the Library files that a particular application (executable uses)

I think it's not possible to do that directly. After compiling, the source code for C program is not needed to work.
