| VERSION |
| ------- |
| |
| What version number is this target. |
| |
| For shared libraries VERSION and SOVERSION can be used to specify the |
| build version and API version respectively. When building or |
| installing appropriate symlinks are created if the platform supports |
| symlinks and the linker supports so-names. If only one of both is |
| specified the missing is assumed to have the same version number. For |
| executables VERSION can be used to specify the build version. When |
| building or installing appropriate symlinks are created if the |
| platform supports symlinks. For shared libraries and executables on |
| Windows the VERSION attribute is parsed to extract a "major.minor" |
| version number. These numbers are used as the image version of the |
| binary. |
