Curl is also libcurl. They're actually individually - versioned, but they mostly follow each other rather closely. - - The version numbering is always built up using the same system: - - X.Y[.Z] - - Where - X is main version number - Y is release number - Z is patch number - - One of these numbers will get bumped in each new release. The numbers to the - right of a bumped number will be reset to zero. If Z is zero, it may not be - included in the version number. - - The main version number will get bumped when *really* big, world colliding - changes are made. The release number is bumped when changes are performed or - things/features are added. The patch number is bumped when the changes are - mere bugfixes. - - It means that after release 1.2.3, we can release 2.0 if something really big - has been made, 1.3 if not that big changes were made or 1.2.4 if mostly bugs - were fixed. - - Bumping, as in increasing the number with 1, is unconditionally only - affecting one of the numbers (except the ones to the right of it, that may be - set to zero). 1 becomes 2, 3 becomes 4, 9 becomes 10, 88 becomes 89 and 99 - becomes 100. So, after 1.2.9 comes 1.2.10. After 3.99.3, 3.100 might come. - - All original curl source release archives are named according to the libcurl - version (not according to the curl client version that, as said before, might - differ). - - As a service to any application that might want to support new libcurl - features while still being able to build with older versions, all releases - have the libcurl version stored in the curl/curlver.h file using a static - numbering scheme that can be used for comparison. The version number is - defined as: - - #define LIBCURL_VERSION_NUM 0xXXYYZZ - - Where XX, YY and ZZ are the main version, release and patch numbers in - hexadecimal. All three number fields are always represented using two digits - (eight bits each). 1.2 would appear as "0x010200" while version 9.11.7 - appears as "0x090b07". - - This 6-digit hexadecimal number is always a greater number in a more recent - release. It makes comparisons with greater than and less than work. - - This number is also available as three separate defines: - LIBCURL_VERSION_MAJOR, LIBCURL_VERSION_MINOR and LIBCURL_VERSION_PATCH. |
