You can run non-cygwin applications from Cygwin's bash.  If you can
compile and run java from the command line then you should be able to
figure out what version of the Java SDK you have.  If you can't get the
version via the command line then you should be able to find out what
version is installed via the Control Panel.

In any event, to reiterate, "we don't provide a Java SDK".
