using System;
class Sample
{
public static void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine();
Console.WriteLine("OSVersion: {0}", Environment.OSVersion.ToString());

This example produces the following results:
OSVersion: Microsoft Windows NT 5.1.2600.0

2. Re: Is there a way to determine the operating system from within a C# program?
The above code works well in Windows, but in RHEL it throws the error "error CS0117: 'Environment' does not contain a definition for 'OSVersion'"
The following code works with any operating system:
using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
namespace ConsoleApplication
{
public class Program
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine(System.Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeInformation.OSDescription.ToString());
Console.WriteLine(System.Runtime.InteropServices.RuntimeInformation.OSArchitecture.ToString());
}
}
}
