** 
Is there a list somewhere that lists the User tool versions and there
AR_CURRENT_API_VERSION value. We are thinking of implementing this on our
system but want to allow more than just the most current version.

Re: AR_CURRENT_API_VERSION

2007-02-20 Thread Ben Chernys
Look in the ar.h file for symbol AR_CURRENT_API_VERSION.  

Briefly
  12 == 7.0
  11 == 6.3
  10 == 6.0
   9 == 5.12

At some point for previous versions, the symbol is not defined and other 
symbols are used.

Cheers
Ben

Hi David,

in the on-line help for the BMC Remedy Administrator, there's a list:

The corresponding API and AR System versions are as follows:
API 12 and AR System 7.0
API 11 and AR System 6.3
API 10 and AR System 6.0
API 9 and AR System 5.1
API 8 and AR System 5.0
API 7 and AR System 4.5
API 6 and AR System 4.0
API 5 and AR System 3.2
API 4 and AR System 3.0 and 3.1
If you set the minimum API version to 12, clients prior to version 7.0 will
not be able to communicate with the AR System 7.0 or later server. If you
set the API version to 0 or none, all clients will be able to communicate
with the server.


be aware though, some integrations are linked against earlier API's, they
fail to work if you would use this setting. This would need some testing.
The use of an init-form and workflow (mentioned yesterday) is a solution
which does allow API integrations based on old API versions and will
disallow older client versions.

Kind regards,

Michiel
