com.sun.javafx.runtime.VersionInfo

public class VersionInfo
extends Object

The VersionInfo class contains strings that describe the implementation and specification version of the javafx pacakges. These strings are made available as properties obtained from the System Properties class.

This class serves 3 purposes: 1. It creates the JavaFX version properties to be added into the Java System Properties at the loading of the JavaFX Toolkit. The JavaFX properties are javafx.version and javafx.runtime.version. Their formats follow the specification of java.version and java.runtime.version respectively. See http://java.sun.com/j2se/versioning_naming.html for details. For example, a beta release build of JavaFX 2.0 build number 26 will contain the following properties: javafx.version = 2.0.0-beta javafx.runtime.version = 2.0.0-beta-b26 2. It provides methods to access Hudson build information and timestamp. These methods can be used to uniquely identify a particular build for internal test and deployment: The method getHudsonJobName() will returns the name of the hudson job. For example, a master build will have the name as "presidio", and a graphics-scrum will have the name as "presidio-graphics" and so for. An empty string is returned if the build isn't build on Hudson, such as a local build on a developer machine. The method getHudsonBuildNumber() will returns the number of the hudson job on a particular build scrum. The job number is sequentially incremented for each build job. For example, a master build job number of 25 was built before master job number 26. A string of zeros is returned if the build isn't build on Hudson, such as a local build on a developer machine. The method getBuildTimestamp() will returns the timestamp of the build. 3. To uniquely identify a build that isn't generated on Hudson, such as a local build on a developer machine. It substitutes the build number tag of the javafx.runtime.version string with the build timestamp. For example, a beta build of JavaFx 2.0 on a developer machine will look something like the following: javafx.version = 2.0.0-beta javafx.runtime.version = 2.0.0-beta (2011/04/28 22:08:04)

The tags of the form @STRING@ are populated by ant when the project is built
