Module Version_utilSource
This module gives access to the same version/build information returned by Command-based executables when called with the -version or -build-info flags by $0 version (-build-info | -version) or $0 (-build-info | -version).
Here's how it works: we arrange for the build system to, at link time, include an object file that defines symbols that version_util.ml uses to get the strings that contain the information that this module provides. When building with OMake, our OMakeroot runs build_info.sh to generate *.build_info.c with the symbols and that is linked in.
All hg repos and their revision.
Like version_list but space separated. Consider using version_list instead.
Application_specific_fields is a single field in the build-info sexp that holds a Sexp.t String.Map.t, which can be chosen by the application to hold custom fields that it needs.
Various additional information about the circumstances of the build: who built it, when, on what machine, etc. build_info is the information as it was generated by the build system. reprint_build_info parses and prints the string back, which alters a bit the layout and order of the fields but more importantly allows to display times in the current zone.
Relative to OMakeroot dir
If false, all the variables above are filled in with bogus values. The value is false in tests at the moment.
