version number in version.h

Post by el_supremo »

In previous version of IM the version numbers were specified like this in magick/version.h

Code: Select all

#define MagickLibVersionText  "6.4.2"
#define MagickLibVersionNumber  6,4,2,5
in SVN it is now

Code: Select all

#define MagickLibVersionText  "6.4.4"
#define MagickLibVersionNumber  1,0,0
Is this a new way to specify the MagickLibVersionNumber and, if so, how to interpret it?

We changed the versioning to match the ABI of the MagickCore library. Previously the library was linked with -lMagick now its -lMagickCore and the Wand ABI is MagickWand. The version is 1,0,0 because it is the first release of MagickCore (version, revision, age).
