[osg-users] osg dll versions

2009-07-21 Thread Bob Youmans
Hi, what's the preferred way to tell which version an osg55-osg.dll is build
from, say 2.8.0 vs 2.8.1.  Is there no versioning resource in the dll (e.g.,
Windows resource)?  Is there an easy way to tell which version osg55-osg.dll
is?

 

Thanks,

Bob

55 is the shared object version (SOVERSION) from the 2.8 releases 
(they're all binary compatible.  My understanding is that the number is 
only bumped when binary compatibility is broken, so 
OpenSceneGraph-2.8.2-rc4 has the same SOVERSION as 2.8.0, but the 
current SOVERSION in the svn trunk is 61.


I don't believe there are any resources embedded into the DLLs at all.

Hi,

but what if i have a team of developers and they're not working on osg 
components, and i ask them to get these new binaries (i build them, they 
don't).  Then later, there's no better way to tell what versions they have than 
looking at the date/time and/or file sizes (they're not sure if they did it or 
not)?  can't we have better version control than that? 

i realize i'm on a particular platform (win32).  is there no in-file versioning 
possible? 

can there be an osg version function to return a string or a version object 
stating the version (2.8.0 vs 2.8.1) so we can unequivocally know what version 
someone is running and display it in Help, About, or some other startup info?

Thank you!

Cheers,
Bob

You can call osgGetVersion().  Look at include/osg/Version for reference.

Have a look at the doxygen documentation, particularly
