For

public static method For → (4)

moduleName ⁱⁿ : string: [not-empty]
See ModuleName.
versionMajor ⁱⁿ : int32: [>=0]
See VersionMajor.
versionMinor ⁱⁿ : int32: [>=0]

returns → BuildInformation: The BuildInformation instance.

Creates a new instance of BuildInformation.

Load

public static method Load → (1)

path ⁱⁿ : Path: [not-null]
Path to a module descriptor text file, in CharacterEncoding.UTF_8 encoding.
returns → BuildInformation: The loaded BuildInformation.

Load the given module descriptor file.

A module descriptor file is a text file in CharacterEncoding.UTF_8 encoding which conforms to the following Grammar:

descriptor    := module-name lb version-major lb version-minor lb build-date ;

build-date    := digit[4] '/' digit[2] '/' digit[2] ;
lb            := '\r' '\n'? | '\n' ;
module-name   := name ;
version-major := number ;
version-minor := number ;

name          := ]\n\r[+ ;
number        := digit+ ;

The following is an example for a module named MyModule with the version0.9:

MyModule
0
9
2024/01/13

IOException: If an I/O error has occurred.

ValidatingException: If the file content is malformed.

public method ToString¹ → (3)

includeModuleName ⁱⁿ : bool: Include ModuleName?
includeVersion ^opt : bool = true: Include VersionMajor and VersionMinor?

returns → string: human-readable string representation.

Returns a human-readable string representation of this build information.

Public / Attributes

BuildDate

public abstract attribute BuildDate → (get)

value : string: [not-empty]
The build date string.

The date of the build.

The string value stores the build date in the following format:
"YYYY/MM/DD".

ModuleName

public abstract attribute ModuleName → (get)

value : string: [not-empty]
The build module name string.

Machine-readable and human-understandable name of the code module this build information is referring to.

Version

public attribute Version → (get)

value : string: [not-empty]
The version number string.

The version number of the build in the form: major.minor.

VersionMajor

public abstract attribute VersionMajor → (get)

value : int32: [>=0]
The major version number.

The major version number of the build.

Each time the major version number is increased, the minor version number is reset to 0. Breaking changes and thus code migration can become necessary between major versions.

VersionMinor

public abstract attribute VersionMinor → (get)

value : int32: [>=0]
The bugfix number of the build version.

The minor version number of the build.

The minor version number is incremented after bugfixes and patches which do not affect API compatibility, thus breaking changes will not occur and code migration is not necessary.
