The major number is increased for backwards-incompatible API changes, # the minor number for backwards-compatible ones (for example, for adding a new # function), and the patch number is typically increased for each package # release, being in a sense redundant. Increase of the version component resets # the rightmost ones to zero. See also: # # http://mysqlserverteam.com/the-client-library-part-2-the-version-number/ # # There is no way to deduce the ABI version from the release version, so we # obtain the ABI version from the SHARED_LIB_MAJOR_VERSION variable value in # cmake/mysql_version.cmake for each package release. Also, while at it, check # that the protocol version is still correct (the PROTOCOL_VERSION variable). # # See also how Debian/Fedora package libmysqlclient if trying to wrap your head # around this mess. # if ($version.major == 5 && $version.minor == 7 && $version.patch == 20) { # @@ Should we also use the ABI minor version to make sure the library is # also forward-compatible? # abi_version = 20 protocol_version = 10 } else fail "increment the ABI version?"
