Hello, Jörg!
Ah, thank you very much for the explanation. I now understand how a
process works under Cygwin (to be honest, I was suspecting it was just a
compatibility layer on top of a Windows runtime).
Now I'm almost a 100% sure the problem relies solely on my end. :) But
now I know how to solve it. :)
Cheers!
Paulo

Dear friends,
I have to execute a certain system command according to the underlying
operating system; so far, SystemUtils works like a charm. But now I'm
facing a quite peculiar situation: I'd need to run a different code if
my Java application is being invoked from a Cygwin session.
I do not have a Windows machine (that's good!) so I cannot test how
things go (that's bad!). Do you guys know if it's possible to find out
if my code is running with Cygwin?
Any help is greatly appreciated. :)
What do you try to accomplish? Please understand, that all the Cygwin stuff
works only for applications compiled for Cygwin. Unless you don't have a JVM
compiled for the Cygwin core, every JVM is a native Windows application
which knowns nothing about Cygwin's Posix compatibility layer. Cygwin itself
forces therefore the launch of the Java runtime with an environment adjusted
for a pure Windows process.
All the best and a happy new year!
Same to you.
Cheers,
Jörg
