Hi, for quite a long time now there was a change in version name for development version (git from gitorious' main branch of FlightGear) which follow the scheme "development __DATE__".
I haven't found yet how it is done from git for fgdata as the file http://gitorious.org/fg/fgdata/blobs/master/version contains 2.7.0 these days, but my local clone is "development May 18 2012", for today git pull. I had a look in my .git/hooks files and just found nothing. BTW FlightGear's code check for version following the scheme #define FLIGHTGEAR_VERSION "development " __DATE__ (from src/Include/version.h:10), which I don't want to discuss here, but, if the version continue to follow this scheme, it should be nice to change the reading code for $FG_ROOT/version file, in $FG_SOURCE/src/Main/fg_init.cxx, too. I've made the change myself some monthes ago on my local clone, thinking that someone would change it "for real" :), but it is not the case. The change is very simple, at least from my point of view, and shouldn't have any side-effect, but as I'm not a C++ guru I maybe miss something, here it is: --- a/src/Main/fg_init.cxx +++ b/src/Main/fg_init.cxx @@ -144,7 +144,7 @@ string fgBasePackageVersion() { } string version; - in >> version; + getline(in, version); return version; } Without this change, the value of the string version is always and only "development", so it never match the version created at compilation time from src/Include/version.h. Maybe I miss something trivial here, or I'm the only one facing this behaviour. If it is the case, please let me know how I can get correct behaviour. I'haven't found anything relevant from fg forums, nor mailing-list. Best regards. seb ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
