Class VersionUtil



  • public class VersionUtil
    extends Object
    Functionality for supporting exposing of component Versions. Also contains other misc methods that have no other place to live in.

    Note that this class can be used in two roles: first, as a static utility class for loading purposes, and second, as a singleton loader of per-module version information.

    Note that method for accessing version information changed between versions 2.1 and 2.2; earlier code used file named "VERSION.txt"; but this has serious performance issues on some platforms (Android), so a replacement system was implemented to use class generation and dynamic class loading.

    Note that functionality for reading "VERSION.txt" was removed completely from Jackson 2.6.

      • versionFor

        public static Version versionFor(Class<?> cls)
        Helper method that will try to load version information for specified class. Implementation is as follows: First, tries to load version info from a class named "PackageVersion" in the same package as the class. If no version information is found, Version.unknownVersion() is returned.
      • packageVersionFor

        public static Version packageVersionFor(Class<?> cls)
        Loads version information by introspecting a class named "PackageVersion" in the same package as the given class.

        If the class could not be found or does not have a public static Version field named "VERSION", returns null.

      • mavenVersionFor

        @Deprecated
        public static Version mavenVersionFor(ClassLoader cl,
                                                          String groupId,

        Deprecated. Since 2.6: functionality not used by any official Jackson component, should be moved out if anyone needs it
        Will attempt to load the maven version for the given groupId and artifactId. Maven puts a pom.properties file in META-INF/maven/groupId/artifactId, containing the groupId, artifactId and version of the library.
        Parameters:
        cl - the ClassLoader to load the pom.properties file from
        groupId - the groupId of the library
        artifactId - the artifactId of the library
        Returns:
        The version

                                           String artifactId)
        Method used by PackageVersion classes to decode version injected by Maven build.
