So the question is do you want the version of your module or do you want the version of the product since those might not be in sync (anyone can do a product based on some version of XWiki platform). What you saw on https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/How+can+I+find+the+version+of+XWiki+I'm+running is the version of the product.
If the goal is to set something like the version of "XWiki" then what is described on https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/How+can+I+find+the+version+of+XWiki+I'm+running is not what you want. What you need is the version of you own extension basically and you can do that by asking Extension Manager the version of the installed extension with the id of your module. @Inject private CoreExtensionRepository coreExtensionRepository; ... CoreExtension myself = this.coreExtensionRepository.getCoreExtension("org.xwiki.commons:xwiki-commons-somehttpmodule") Version version = myself.getId().getVersion() The import issue you have is probably because you are missing xwiki-commons-extension-api dependency in your pom.xml. Another more Java standard approach would be to get the version from the MANIFEST which would be much easier... if we did not forget to configure Maven to set the version in the MANIFEST (just noticed it). It would be something like this.getClass().getPackage().getSpecificationVersion(). I guess this would require a different discussion on the mailing list, will send a mail about that. Note that we have the version in the MANIFEST but in a custom field set by the bundle plugin (Bundle-Version) and I would really prefer using it in a more standard location.
