This is the fault of yours truly. $Rev$ does exactly what you suggest in the next paragraph - tell the user which SVN revision of SWORD is being compiled. SVN automatically inserts r2679 (the version that you have there from Xiphos 3.1.5) when the files are updated or checked out. I, however, built the package by using git to checkout the SVN code. This is because Xiphos maintains a patch file which would be extremely tedious to update manually but maintaining a git branch with the patch included makes patch maintenance almost trivial. So you are dealing with r2679, which is current as of about a week ago. I should really update the build system to handle that replacement somehow before sending those SWORD builds out into the wild. I'm assuming a simple sed script to find/replace the $Rev$ string with the revision number is sufficient. --Greg > > Why don't Sword utilities (for Windows) tell the user exactly which SVN > version they were compiled from? > > I only know because I asked the question just after Xiphos 3.1.5 was > released. > > David > > > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://sword-dev.350566.n4.nabble.com/preverse-divs-tp4429131p4432164.html > Sent from the SWORD Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > _______________________________________________ > sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org > http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel > Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
