How to know the version of an installed library? My code has #if
macros to handle different APIs. So I would need to get the version
and set 2 variables (MAJOR and MINOR) and pass them to the compiler
(-D).
To be more precise, I am interested in Player/Stage. One way to get
the version is to run the player executable. Under linux:
VERSION=`player 2>&1 | grep "Player v" | cut -d' ' -f2`
this gives "v2.2.0". Then
MAJOR=`echo $VERSION | cut -d'.' -f2`
MINOR=`echo $VERSION | cut -d'.' -f3`
I do not particularly need a solution that would work under windows
at the moment, but that would be a bonus of course.
There is a win32 api function for this, see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms647003.aspx for more
informations.

I am looking for a way to do it with CMake: the information is required
at compile time because different versions have a different API. How can
I write a script in CMake that would check the library version at
configuration time, then either set Makefile variables to be passed to
the compiler or write some header file to be included in the source?
Anybody? Even if you cannot think of a OS-independent way its fine. I
immediately interested in how to do it under Linux, i.e. how to tell
CMake to run the small script above to retrieve the minor and major of
the player library.
