We go one step further..
In the code base there is a build.properties file with
the
following data:
build.version=XX.YY.ZZ
build.date=2005-09-21
build.date.format=yyyy-mm-dd
Then instead of a static variable in Java class (say
called BuildInfo.java) we have static method called
getBuildVersion() (and getBuildDate()) which read the
build.properties file, cache the results and return
the value the callee.
Our build process (using CruiseControl) writes/updates
the build.properties file only... Build.java is not
modified.
Hope that helps,
