DOLFIN

dolfin version

Asked by Felix Ospald

Hi, is there something like a DOLFIN_VERSION somewhere in the C++ headers defined (didn't find one)?
Or how to determine if the user has dolfin 1.0 (stable version) or dolfin 1.1 (current dev version)?

Run dolfin-version from the command prompt.

Thanks you, but it would be nice to have something like a
#define DOLFIN_VERSION_MAJOR 1
#define DOLFIN_VERSION_MINOR 1
in dolfin_common.h (for example) and if it is not defined (to be compatible to existing installation) I would know it is dolfin< 1.1

This would it make it more easy to write compatible code for the 1.0 and 1.1 version.

For sure i can use somehow dolfin-version within cmake to define these constants for g++. But it is more complicated.

an easy workaround for the moment would be for example

#include<dolfin/la/dolfin_la.h>

#ifdef __GENERIC_LINEAR_OPERATOR_H
#warning "Version >=1.1"
#else
#warning "Version <1.1"
#endif

If you use either pkg-config or cmake to find the installed dolfin in
your configure set up you have this defined for you:

  -DDOLFIN_VERSION=\"1.0.0+\"
