Porting from cygwin to win32 native program

I am porting the Enhanced CTorrent to Windows. But I'd like use Visual Studio to compile source code and get rid of cygwin.dll.

I found directives to conditionally use winsock header. But at moment I only can compile the source code by cygwin. I am wondering is the WINDOWS in code below same as _WIN32 in Visual Studio? And can cygwin directly use Win32 API as well?

#ifdef WINDOWS
#include <Winsock2.h>
#else

if you still want to keep this working under cygwin while you convert the source, you can use something like:

#if defined(WINDOWS) || defined(_WIN32)
#include <Winsock2.h>
#else

and for using Win32 API on cygwin, see the FAQ.
