Version numbers for CakePHP

Question

I have inherited code from old contractors overseas. The cakephp version I see is:

CakePHP v 0.2.9

Where does this fit in? Does it predate 1.0 or is this some 2.0 convention?

Slaby

the 0.2.9 is "since", i.e. when the class/file was first introduced – Cachou

Answer 1

Simplest way to find current version is

echo Configure::version();

Answer 2

The current version number of Cake 2.0 can be found in /path/to/cake/lib/Cake/VERSION.txt. The txt file contains a commented block containing the file description (stating that it has been there since Cake 0.2.9), followed by the actual version number.

The same file may be found in Cake 1.3 in /path/to/cake/cake/VERSION.txt.

Below are the contents of the 2.0.5 VERSION.txt:
