1. how to find version?

   bpalmer <bpalmer@crimelabs.net> — 2003-11-16T00:56:00Z

   I'm trying to figure out what version of a source code I have.  I know 
   it's a 7.2 release,  but how can I find out of it's 7.2,  7.2.3,  7.2.4,  
   etc.  FROM THE SOURCE CODE,  not from compiling (it doesn't compile,  it's 
   testing code).
   
   Thanks

   I did try that,  but I'm still having a "much" larger than expected diff 
   between the two code bases.  *shrug*  ok.

   You should see a lines like this in configure.in
   
   [lines 28-33 of configure.in for 7.2.4]
   
   AC_PREREQ(2.13)
   AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR(config)
   
   VERSION='7.2.4'
   AC_SUBST(VERSION)
   AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED(PG_VERSION, "$VERSION")
   
   best wishes

   If the database is running it will tell you when you log into it with psql.
