Thank you very much for your reply, John! Anyway, I'm amazed that this
must be so complicated. I mean, I wouldn't expect to have to dig into the UNO framework to get that. I thought something like a -v option should do
the job :o)

Thing is: once I developed a UNO package that worked fine for version 1.5 but would crash 2.0. So it seems to me that OOo version numbers may come
handy for installers/updaters.

Cheers,

Jorge.

Hi
The thread/subject 'How to get the Version?' has a way that a java client that has a hook to OO can do this. Previous posts on other similar threads
have discussed how OO Basic can do the same.

Subject: [api-dev] external application getting OOo version number


Hi, all!

I'd like to know what is the easiest way for an external application (say,
an ebuild binary) to find out OOo's version number (e.g. 2.0.2).

Thanks in advance. Cheers,

I went into OOo/program/ and did
grep -r Build *

This revealed various info about the build in text file program/ versionrc
But there is no guarantee all files are from the same build ?
