Hi all
I'm trying to update some existing code so that it will be compatible with
1.7, in particular the use of settings.AUTH_USER_MODEL instead of
get_user_model().
Given the differences I'm going to have to check the version numbers and
then have two alternatives eg:
if StrictVersion(get_version()) >= StrictVersion('1.7'):
new code
else:
old code
However the current version number for 1.7 is 1.7b3, which is treated as being
less than 1.7 according to StrictVersion.
In order to get it to work the way I want right now I'm going to have to
compare with a version number such as 1.7a1,
but this is going to look pretty ugly going forward.
What is the best practice for doing version number comparisons taking into
account the existence of beta version numbers?
Thanks
Kevin
