.NET Forum / .NET Framework / CLR / June 2004Detecting number of processors
I want to add "number of processors" to my license control system. I know I can use Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable() to check for the environment variable NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS, but I do not know how easy this might be to fake. Would I be better off using a Win32 sdk call to GetSystemInfo? Is there a better way? Which is more reliable? Which is more portable? Thanks! I would imagine that calling GetSystemInfo() is more reliable. It is really easy to change an evironment variable before launching your program.
