Andrei Pozolotin commented on PIVOT-746:
----------------------------------------
another wild idea: there is not need for build.properties at all;
use instead:
http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/Package.html
getClass().getPackage().getSpecificationVersion();
getClass().getPackage().getSpecificationTitle();
getClass().getPackage().getImplementationVersion();
getClass().getPackage().getImplementationTitle();
:-)
> Add API to return Version of Pivot retrieved from "build.properties"

> Would be helpful to be able to determine programmatically what the version of
> Pivot is. The simplest method is to include "build.properties" which is the
> original source of this information in the packaged .jar files and then to
> provide an API to read and parse this value into a Version structure.
