Re: [Swig-devel] fakeversion writes files with original version #

[Mark D. <Mar...@sl...>]

Hi

my aim was to see what generated code SWIG changed between the old  
(stable)
version and the head of CVS.

If you just run the HEAD of CVS it will change all (ours around 2000  
classes)
by just inserting a new version number. So by setting the fakeversion  
I could
at least eliminate this small change and see what the real  
differences are.

I posted a patch. Feel free to ignore it...

Regards
Mark
