Any tips on handling versioning?  I need to maintain a x.x.x.x.ddd versioning scheme. 
The first four x's have to have a 0-15 range and the final ddd can have any decimal 
value.  With this version information, I need to:

        - Append it to the jar name
        - Have it available in Ant for source control labelling
        - Have a target to increment the version

And I want to:

        - Have it available programatically

My attempt this far is to have the values in a property file that Ant can read and 
also be embedded in the Jar for reading at runtime.  But I'm having trouble 
automatically incrementing the version.  I've noticed the "BuildNumbers" tasks, as 
well as "Property" task.  The former only deal with a single number (whereas I have 
multiple), and the latter appears to only support arithmetic for dates, not decimal 
values.

My goal is to keep it as close to core/optional ant as possible.  BUt if there is 
nothing else, I might look into the scripting tasks.

Any auggestions?

Regards,
Brian.
