---------------------------------
> Add SVN revsion number to version number
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: XERCESC-1836
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1836
> Project: Xerces-C++
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Build
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Environment: MS Windows XP SP3, VS2005/8
> Reporter: David Kelvin
> Priority: Minor
>
> A number of Open Source projects, that generate executables and DLL files,
> add the SVN version number to the version displayed via properties [I don't
> know if the equivalent is available for non-Windows platforms].
> This is normally done in the custom Pre-Build step that uses TortoiseSVN's
> "SubWCRev.exe" program to copy a file (e.g. version.in) to a new file
> (version.h) which defines the current revision level. This is included in
> the corresponding resource file so that it is visible to the user. See
> project http://passwordsafe.sourceforge.net/ as an example.
> So with the current level: the propery page would show the DLL was
> 3.0.0.708302.
> I think this would be useful when an application wanted to make sure that the
> version in use has a specific fix included prior to a formal release.
> Thanks.
