Is there any reliable way of getting the number of columns/rows of the current output terminal window?
I want to retrieve these numbers in a C/C++ program.

To expand @herohuyongtao answer for Windows. The .srWindow property gives the answer to the size of the console window, i.e. visible rows and cols. This doesn't say what is the actual available screen buffer width and height, which could be larger if window contains scroll bars. If this is the case, use .dwSize:
CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO sbInfo;
GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE), &sbInfo);
int availableColumns = sbInfo.dwSize.X;
int availableRows = sbInfo.dwSize.Y;
