Roger Whitcomb commented on PIVOT-746:
--------------------------------------
Okay, so here's a patch that reverts the addition of "build.properties" to the
.jar files and instead uses Andrei's method to get the Implementation-Version
(which is already set by the value from "build.properties"). It should be
fail-safe in the case of running from .class files and not from .jars.
> Add API to return Version of Pivot retrieved from "build.properties"

> Would be helpful to be able to determine programmatically what the version of
> Pivot is. The simplest method is to include "build.properties" which is the
> original source of this information in the packaged .jar files and then to
> provide an API to read and parse this value into a Version structure.
