Re: CruiseControl Version Number?

I've also seen this in the jsp reporting app when running in a separate 
tomcat instance, but it "goes away" after the jsp has been pre-compiled 
(or something - not sure exactly how/why). Basically, later refreshes of 
the browser showed the actual substituted values. Not sure why.

Are you in the jsp or dashboard reporting app?

How did you install CruiseControl?  When it's built it reads a property file
to get the version number:

main jsimpson$ cat version.properties

version = @VERSION@
version.info = @VERSION_INFO@

That file is read by the code:

jsimpson$ ack version.info
net/sourceforge/cruisecontrol/Main.java
450:     * @return the current version information, as indicated in the
version.properties file.
463:     * Writes the current version information to the logging information
stream.
464:     * @param props the current version information, as indicated in the
version.properties file.
467:        LOG.info("CruiseControl Version " + props.getProperty("version")
+ " " + props.getProperty("version.info"));

So it implies that a build step hasn't been run.
