Easy if you build with ANT - but very OT! Use the increment task to increment a property file, then a filterset to place that version number into a JSP/HTML. For more info email me direct or post to ANT mailing list.

I'm trying to figure out an elegant way to maintain that in the simplest and perhaps the most automated way. My source is kept in a cvs archive but of course there are dozens of files so it would be difficult to base a version number on the version number of a single source or would it? The number would be displayed as part of the title(<TITLE> My App 0.92</TITLE>) in the index.jsp so it would have to be easily available to that file. I suppose I could use JNDI, I could hardwire it into the index.jsp file, but I probably want to put it into other .jsp files also and it would be harder to keep up with that way. Anyway I'm looking for good ideas from this very enlightened crowd.
