Perhaps, but if that is true, then it is possible you were not reading my 
question as well.


1. My goal is to display the version of cayenne server jar I have added to the 
project with Cayenne 4.0.
2. With Cayenne 3.0 this was *easily* accomplished with 
>>>>>>>>        org.apache.cayenne.project.Project.CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION
3. I am doing this as part of a status to provide a *simple* visual 
verification of system health for my system administrator.
4. This definition is no longer available in 4.0/
5. If I understand your 3 or 4 emails, then I need to employ the use of an 
extension library in order to get the version of the cayenne-server.jar.  In 
addition, it appears to be part of a maven repository.
6. If that is correct then, what was a very simple query of the cayenne-server 
api version, has become a much more complex and convoluted procedure to 
determine.
7. If that is true (which it appears to be from your last email - detailing and 
additional filter, an addition jar file,etc), then the conclusion is that a 
“simple query of the jar version” (previously available in Cayenne 3.0) is no 
longer available.

If all that is true (which it appears to be), then there is no simple 
substitute for 3.0’s

>>>>>>>> org.apache.cayenne.project.Project.CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION


in 4.0.

IMHO, your substitute may be a substitute, but it is not a simple query against 
the cayenne-server jar for the runtime version as it was in 3.0.  In addition, 
I have done an exhaustive search through the API to find a simple substitute 
but could find none. Therefore, I believe I do understand.

If you have a more 3.0 way of accomplishing this, please let me know. 
Otherwise, I would not use your example as a simple substitute.
