System identification at runtime

[Polluks]

Hi there!

Right now I'm using FindResident("processor.resource") to identify AROS,
how about something like FindResident("AROS")? See MorphOS.

Greetings,

Hi Stefan,

As I understand it, that's the aim of the ArosInquireA() function. System/AboutAROS uses it.

I think he wants to do this in a 68k program, and in that case something like this will probably do it:

Code: [Select]

struct Library *arosBase = OpenLibrary("aros.library", 0);
if (arosBase)
{
  // running on AROS
  CloseLibrary(arosBase);
  arosBase = NULL;
}
