| 
 | |
| VERSION - OpenSSL version information
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS
 | |
| 
 | |
|  MAJOR=3
 | |
|  MINOR=0
 | |
|  PATCH=0
 | |
|  PRE_RELEASE_TAG=dev
 | |
|  BUILD_METADATA=
 | |
|  RELEASE_DATE=
 | |
|  SHLIB_VERSION=3
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION
 | |
| 
 | |
| This file is a set of keyed information looking like simple variable
 | |
| assignments.  When given an empty value, they are seen as unassigned.
 | |
| The keys that are recognised are:
 | |
| 
 | |
| =over 4
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<MAJOR>, B<MINOR>, B<PATCH>
 | |
| 
 | |
| The three parts of OpenSSL's 3 numbered version number, MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
 | |
| These are used to compose the values for the C macros B<OPENSSL_VERSION_MAJOR>,
 | |
| B<OPENSSL_VERSION_MINOR>, B<OPENSSL_VERSION_PACTH>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<PRE_RELEASE_TAG>
 | |
| 
 | |
| This is the added pre-release tag, which is added to the version separated by
 | |
| a dash.  For a value C<foo>, the C macro B<OPENSSL_VERSION_PRE_RELEASE> gets
 | |
| the string C<-foo> (dash added).
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<BUILD_METADATA>
 | |
| 
 | |
| Extra metadata to be used by anyone for their own purposes.  This is added to
 | |
| the version and possible pre-release tag, separated by a plus sign.  For a
 | |
| value C<bar>, the C macro B<OPENSSL_VERSION_BUILD_METADATA> gets the string
 | |
| C<+bar>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<RELEASE_DATE>
 | |
| 
 | |
| Defined in releases.  When not set, it gets the value C<xx XXX xxxx>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item B<SHLIB_VERSION>
 | |
| 
 | |
| The shared library version, which is something other than the project version.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =back
 | |
| 
 | |
| It is a configuration error if B<MAJOR>, B<MINOR>, B<PATCH> and B<SHLIB_VERSION>
 | |
| don't have values.  Configuration will stop in that case.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =head2 Affected configuration data
 | |
| 
 | |
| The following items in %config from F<configdata.pm> are affected:
 | |
| 
 | |
| =over 4
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item $config{major}, $config{minor}, $config{patch}, $config{shlib_version}
 | |
| 
 | |
| These items get their values from B<MAJOR>, B<MINOR>, B<PATCH>, and
 | |
| B<SHLIB_VERSION>, respectively.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item $config{prerelease}
 | |
| 
 | |
| If B<PRERELEASE> is assigned a value, $config{prerelease} gets that same value,
 | |
| prefixed by a dash, otherwise the empty string.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item $config{build_metadata}
 | |
| 
 | |
| If B<BUILD_METADATA> is assigned a value, $config{build_metadata} gets that same
 | |
| value, prefixed by a plus sign, otherwise the empty string.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item $config{release_date}
 | |
| 
 | |
| If B<RELEASE_DATE> is assigned a value, $config{release_date} gets that same
 | |
| value, otherwise the string C<xx XXX yyyy>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item $config{version}
 | |
| 
 | |
| The minimal version number, a string composed from B<MAJOR>, B<MINOR> and
 | |
| B<PATCH>, separated by periods.  For C<MAJOR=3>, C<MINOR=0> and C<PATCH=0>,
 | |
| the string will be C<3.0.0>.
 | |
| 
 | |
| =item $config{full_version}
 | |
| 
 | |
| The fully loaded version number, a string composed from $config{version},
 | |
| $config{prerelease} and $config{build_metadata}.  See   See L</EXAMPLES> for
 | |
| a few examples.
