Hello, I am wondering what the perl-best-practice approach to sorting version numbers might be.
I am looking at strings like "4.0.0.10", "4.0.0.9", "4.0.1.0", etc and I need to determine the "highest", in this case 4.0.1.0. Previous experience suggests splitting each of these into a list of numbers and then comparing two "versions" by comparing each component number until a winner is found. Is there an existing (semi-built-in?) solution to this problem? TIA for any pointers?
