How to check cygwin version?

Is Cygwin supposed to know _get_pgmptr?

Hi Everyone, I have some code that looks like so: #if defined(_WINDOWS) char* pgmptr = NULLPTR; errno_t err = _get_pgmptr(&pgmptr); if (err == 0 && pgmptr != NULLPTR) exePath = pgmptr; #endif The code gets the full path of the executable. It sidsteps some problems with findin
