Class Net::SSH::Version
In: lib/net/ssh/version.rb
Parent: Object

A class for describing the current version of a library. The version consists of three parts: the major number, the minor number, and the tiny (or patch) number.

Two Version instances may be compared, so that you can test that a version of a library is what you require:

  require 'net/ssh/version'

  if Net::SSH::Version::CURRENT < Net::SSH::Version[2,1,0]
    abort "your software is too old!"
  end
