[Live-devel] Get version of shared library binary

[Ross Finlayson]

Paul,

Thanks for the note.  You raised a good point; there was not a way to get the library version at runtime.

I have now installed a new version (2024-04-14) of the “LIVE555 Streaming Media” code that fixes this.  In particular, you can now use the following definitions
	extern char const* const liveMediaLibraryVersionStr;
        extern int const liveMediaLibraryVersionInt;
(defined in “liveMedia/include/liveMedia_version.hh”) to get the library version at runtime.

I hope this helps.
