Is there a way to get the following defines to be written to config.h during configure? #define FILEVERSION_MAJOR 1 #define FILEVERSION_MINOR 2 #define FILEVERSION_RELEASE 3 #define FILEVERSION_BUILD 1 #define FILEVERSION_BETA 0 // TRUE 1 or FALSE 0 Where FILEVERSION_BUILD could be for example a svn or cvs number. So, there is a release 1.2.3.0 of project "very_useful" and configure writes the defines for this in config.h. But when we later check out a cvs version of "very_useful", either configure is so smart it know about this and even writes a proper FILEVERSION_BUILD number, or we can optionally manually assign a number ourselves. Have there been any rules or strategies about version numbers?
