Developer forums (C::B DEVELOPMENT STRICTLY!) > Development

what is the dev version now ?

(1/1)

afb:
What should the development version be called ? It's currently called "1.0svn####", maybe it should be updated to "8.0" for instance ? (i.e. release is "8.02", while nightly/snapshot is "8.0svn4925" for instance)

afb:
Also, this (version) should be autoconf'ed since it is currently hardcoded in at least 4 places.

Good point...  maybe we should just leave out the 1.0 and simply call it "svn 1234"?

I think that's the way to handle it with the least work, even after coming releases.

It needs a regular version*, though. And increasing from "1.0" to "8.0" seemed like
big enough of a jump, going to "4925" would probably be stretching it a bit... :-)

* for packaging and such, and looking somewhat the same like other software
