- VERSION
- -------
- What version number is this target.
- For shared libraries ``VERSION`` and :prop_tgt:`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.
- Windows Versions
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- 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.
- Mach-O Versions
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- For shared libraries and executables on Mach-O systems (e.g. OS X, iOS),
- the :prop_tgt:`SOVERSION` property correspond to *compatibility version* and
- ``VERSION`` to *current version*. See the :prop_tgt:`FRAMEWORK` target
- property for an example. Versions of Mach-O binaries may be checked with the
- ``otool -L <binary>`` command.
