Roger Whitcomb commented on PIVOT-1035: --------------------------------------- The "Implementation-Version" field looks like it can be any arbitrary text. But in ApplicationContext it is getting this value and parsing it as a "Version"... (line 1867 in the static initialization of the class), so it pretty much has to correspond to our understanding of a "Version" string (org.apache.pivot.util.Version). So, I have just updated our own "Version" class to deal with the build number in the format I just implemented (change from "short" to "long"): Sending core\src\org\apache\pivot\util\Version.java Transmitting file data .done Committing transaction... Committed revision 1833933. > Add a real build number to the Pivot (internal) version > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIVOT-1035 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-1035 > Project: Pivot > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: wtk > Reporter: Roger Whitcomb > Assignee: Roger Whitcomb > Priority: Minor > > Right now the internal Pivot version number looks like this: 2.1.0_00, where > the final "00" is always 00. It would be helpful if we could implement a > "real" build number to track changes during development (for instance). I'm > not sure how this should work, but beginning with the Ant "<buildnumber/>" > task might be a start. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
