In some way, the value in Enumerations.H is what we'd want to pick up - but that is not perhaps the most "accessible" format for it? > Oh, and another question: WHEN do we upgrade the version number(s)? > > (a) immediately after one release, for the next release, or What Mike said: As soon as *anything* in SVN changes after a release, we need to "bump" the version numbers in some way. Ideally, I suppose, we might bump it to a "temporary" number, then change that to the "formal" number for the next release, so that folks can determine if the build they have is a formal release or some svn checkout or something...? (I sort of have this in some of my own builds, where the Makefile calls a script, which calls "svnversion -n ." at build time to get the rev number from the rep,o and writes that into a "version.h" header that the code pulls in. For formal releases I can override that behaviour to put in an "actual" number... The downside is that I can only build this on hosts that use Makefiles and have svn installed, which can be a pain on some Windows machines...)
