CMAKE_VERSION
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The CMake version string as three non-negative integer components
|
||
|
|
separated by ``.`` and possibly followed by ``-`` and other information.
|
||
|
|
The first two components represent the feature level and the third
|
||
|
|
component represents either a bug-fix level or development date.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Release versions and release candidate versions of CMake use the format::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<major>.<minor>.<patch>[-rc<n>]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
where the ``<patch>`` component is less than ``20000000``. Development
|
||
|
|
versions of CMake use the format::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<major>.<minor>.<date>[-<id>]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
where the ``<date>`` component is of format ``CCYYMMDD`` and ``<id>``
|
||
|
|
may contain arbitrary text. This represents development as of a
|
||
|
|
particular date following the ``<major>.<minor>`` feature release.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Individual component values are also available in variables:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* :variable:`CMAKE_MAJOR_VERSION`
|
||
|
|
* :variable:`CMAKE_MINOR_VERSION`
|
||
|
|
* :variable:`CMAKE_PATCH_VERSION`
|
||
|
|
* :variable:`CMAKE_TWEAK_VERSION`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use the :command:`if` command ``VERSION_LESS``, ``VERSION_EQUAL``, or
|
||
|
|
``VERSION_GREATER`` operators to compare version string values against
|
||
|
|
``CMAKE_VERSION`` using a component-wise test. Version component
|
||
|
|
values may be 10 or larger so do not attempt to compare version
|
||
|
|
strings as floating-point numbers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. note::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CMake versions 2.8.2 through 2.8.12 used three components for the
|
||
|
|
feature level. Release versions represented the bug-fix level in a
|
||
|
|
fourth component, i.e. ``<major>.<minor>.<patch>[.<tweak>][-rc<n>]``.
|
||
|
|
Development versions represented the development date in the fourth
|
||
|
|
component, i.e. ``<major>.<minor>.<patch>.<date>[-<id>]``.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
CMake versions prior to 2.8.2 used three components for the
|
||
|
|
feature level and had no bug-fix component. Release versions
|
||
|
|
used an even-valued second component, i.e.
|
||
|
|
``<major>.<even-minor>.<patch>[-rc<n>]``. Development versions
|
||
|
|
used an odd-valued second component with the development date as
|
||
|
|
the third component, i.e. ``<major>.<odd-minor>.<date>``.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The ``CMAKE_VERSION`` variable is defined by CMake 2.6.3 and higher.
|
||
|
|
Earlier versions defined only the individual component variables.
