The closest API to it would be a call to cygwin_internal(CW_GETTHREADNAME, <windows-thread-id>); Where <windows-thread-id> is a DWORD denoting the thread as per GetCurrentThreadId, etc. If the return value is "unknown (<windows-thread-id>)" then Cygwin doesn't know about it. Otherwise it is a important cygwin thread. I haven't checked to see if some actual Cygwin threads show as with "unknown ..." though. Check the source code for more details but be advised that the it's entirely possible that this interface may not work at all. This is an as-is undocumented interface and we make no guarantees that its behavior will remain consistent across releases. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
