Returns the version of ABL, or release of OpenEdge, you
are running. You can also optionally retrieve additional release
information, such as the service pack version number and the hot
fix version number.
Syntax
-
mode
- An optional integer expression that identifies how much version information
is returned, as follows:
- If the value of mode is either 0 or not specified,
PROVERSION returns limited version information—the major version number, the minor
version number, and, if applicable, the version tag.
- If the value of mode is 1, PROVERSION
returns full version information—the major version number, the minor
version number, the service pack number, the hot fix version number,
the build number, and, if applicable, the version tag.
- If the value of mode is other than 1 or 0,
a run-time error message is returned.
Examples
