version(1)version(1)NAMEversion - display version identification of object file or binary
SYNOPSISversion [ filename...]
DESCRIPTION
The version command displays the version of the named file(s).
USAGE
Type: version filename
If the current working directory is not the installation directory of
the compiler(s) and other files to be checked, filename must be the
full path to their installation directory.
Further, you can invoke version also to display the version ID of the
various executables that operate during a compilation session by using
the -V flag in the command line for the compilers: cc, f95, CC.
EXAMPLES
If the current working directory contains the file(s) whose version are
to be displayed, type the command and filename(s), for example:
version f95
version iropt
If the current working directory does not contain the file(s), the
argument must comprise the full path and directory or filename to the
file(s) to be checked for version numbers. For example, in the
following commands path must give the full pathname to the file(s).
version /<path>/f95
version /<path>/prod/iropt
NOTES
The version command identifies the version numbers of the installed Sun
Studio compilers and tools and their associated libraries and other
files.
The version command seeks and displays any string of ASCII characters
following the @(#)RELEASE VERSION string. This string must be
identified correctly in the source file(s), depending on operating
system's version. This string should be in a #pragma ident, for
example:
#pragma ident @(#)RELEASE VERSION 8.2
The version information string following this version-key string can be
any sequence of printable characters terminated by a NEWLINE or NULL.
The version command displays whatever information is thus included in
any file accessed by this command.
Invoking the version command utility with no arguments shows
information on the platform, the products installed and the
configuration they belong to.
