Add `-version=library` to your compiler flags for the library
and `-version=executable` to your compiler flags for the
executable. Then, in the code, you can check for `version
(library)` and `version (executable)`.
Before you ask: no, there is no "more native" way to do this,
because there is actually no difference in how the code is
compiled between the two versions. The distinction between
library and executable is only made when the compiled code is
linked.
I'll really use this then. Thanks!
