Good morning Jafar,
Thank you. That will work just as well as anything else. I can track by
the revision number. It is only used to make sure that I am actually
running the correct binaries.
regards
Bruce Rennie

Just an aside, I have downloaded the latest svn source, and the
version date has not changed. Under what circumstances does this
change?
I'm not sure if there is any well defined rule for changing version
date. In theory, this has to be changed every time a commit has been
made to svn, but this doesn't sound practical. The version date gets
updated when the version number changes. Other than that, usually the
version date gets updated every few months to reflect new
changes/fixes to the language. Icon/Unicon version number historically
has only major and minor numbers, but misses a revision number to
reflect small gradual changes. Having the same concerns you have, few
months ago we decided to add few pieces of information to "-features"
output, which include the revision number. Here are the new "fields":
CCompiler gcc 4.7.2 # C compiler/version used to build unicon
Revision 3516 # source code svn revision number at the
# time of building unicon
Arch x86_32 # 32 or 64 build
These are still experimental and might not be correct on all
platforms, but they are there. You can use the reversion number to
tell if two Unicon builds are different, even if they have the same
version date.
Cheers,
Jafar
