I need to determine the location of an existing Cygwin net installation programatically. More precisely, I need to determine the native path to the directory containing cygwin1.dll from outside the Cygwin environment. I could interrogate the registry for mount points, but in the worst case I would have to look under both HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE for both the "/bin" and "/" mount points. Is there a more robust method?
