I just committed a fix that uses the VERSION constant
in config.h and adds an autoconf generated file that
contains the version number for the documentation
(config.texi.in).
One longer term issue is DLL version numbers. I
am not an expert on that but don't DLL's normally
have them so you can test for compatibility.

Subject: Re: [Simulavr-devel] Version and doc fixes
There seems to be a lot of version strings in the
documentation. Is there any way to pull this in automatically
from the configuration?
Yes. It is just a matter of needing to know everywhere the
version string can show up. Documentation, C code, etc
get different handling. In C, it can be put in config.h by
autoconf. For the doc, we can generate a file which
we include.
By hand in .texinfo, you can lay the groundwork by doing
this near the top.
@set SIMULAVR_VERSION 0.90
I see there's a version.texi file that has that information. But it would be
nice if we could generate this file from the configuration so it doesn't have
to manually be changed.
and use it like this @value{SIMULAVR_VERSION}
I grep'ed for 0.90 and the 0.8 string and didn't see them
much. Where all is this?
I changed the version string to "0.9cvs" which probably doesn't match your grep
search.
It is easy to do. I just need a roadmap.
