Class Version

java.lang.Object
  ariba.util.core.Version

public final class Version
extends Object

This class provides access to build version information. This information is stored in a resource file named BuildInfo.csv, which should exist in a component which is product specific. The build system will modify this file with the version information from the build, and check the file back in. This will allow developers to build with the same values (if they happen to build and install the component containing BuildInfo.csv) that their backdrop was compiled with. This should allow the RPC client-server version matching logic to continue to work. The BuildInfo.csv resource file contains build numbers and dates and is not localized in any way.

There is another resource file named ariba.util.version.csv, which is for the non-build related resources referenced in this class. This resource file lives in this component. It should be localized.

The 'rescheck' tool would normally report the BuildInfo resources as missing, however these are specifically filtered out.

NOTE: The resources from BuildInfo.csv are fetched with warnings turned off so that if a simple "product" (e.g. a test program) does not define BuildInfo.csv, things will still work, but they'll just get zero for the major, minor, path, and build values, and the date will be null.
