How do I find the location of the executable in C? [duplicate]

Answer 1

In many POSIX systems you could check a simlink located under /proc/PID/exe. Few examples:

# file /proc/*/exe
/proc/1001/exe: symbolic link to /usr/bin/distccd
/proc/1023/exe: symbolic link to /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail
/proc/1043/exe: symbolic link to /usr/sbin/crond
