Patrick Mueller commented on CB-635:
------------------------------------

We're on a tack to using something like the config.xml file from 
http://www.w3.org/TR/widgets/ , aren't we?  It appears to have a version 
attribute.  How do you access that info?

It may be appropriate to have a platform-specific version as well as the 
"config.xml" version.  For instance, if you have to make some native fix to 
your app, you don't neccessarily want to have to update the config.xml version, 
if updating the native version is more appropriate.

Making the "native version" available as a property in the same place as the 
config.xml version might be appropriate.

> It seems that every platform offers the ability to define an application 
> version. iOS and Android offer string and numeric fields. They are 
> versionName and versionCode on Android. 
> My request is to add the ability to access this app version info using 
> Javascript. Perhaps adding an "app" namespace with app.versionName, 
> app.versionCode and app.name...
> It would be an easy enough plugin to write, but figured it should eventually 
> become part of the core.
