=head1 NAME

VERSION - OpenSSL version information

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 MAJOR=3
 MINOR=0
 PATCH=0
 PRE_RELEASE_TAG=dev
 BUILD_METADATA=
 RELEASE_DATE=
 SHLIB_VERSION=3

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This file is a set of keyed information looking like simple variable
assignments.  When given an empty value, they are seen as unassigned.
The keys that are recognised are:

=over 4

=item B<MAJOR>, B<MINOR>, B<PATCH>

The three parts of OpenSSL's 3 numbered version number, MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
These are used to compose the values for the C macros B<OPENSSL_VERSION_MAJOR>,
B<OPENSSL_VERSION_MINOR>, B<OPENSSL_VERSION_PACTH>.

=item B<PRE_RELEASE_TAG>

This is the added pre-release tag, which is added to the version separated by
a dash.  For a value C<foo>, the C macro B<OPENSSL_VERSION_PRE_RELEASE> gets
the string C<-foo> (dash added).

=item B<BUILD_METADATA>

Extra metadata to be used by anyone for their own purposes.  This is added to
the version and possible pre-release tag, separated by a plus sign.  For a
value C<bar>, the C macro B<OPENSSL_VERSION_BUILD_METADATA> gets the string
C<+bar>.

=item B<RELEASE_DATE>

Defined in releases.  When not set, it gets the value C<xx XXX xxxx>.

=item B<SHLIB_VERSION>

The shared library version, which is something other than the project version.

=back

It is a configuration error if B<MAJOR>, B<MINOR>, B<PATCH> and B<SHLIB_VERSION>
don't have values.  Configuration will stop in that case.

=head2 Affected configuration data

The following items in %config from F<configdata.pm> are affected:

=over 4

=item $config{major}, $config{minor}, $config{patch}, $config{shlib_version}

These items get their values from B<MAJOR>, B<MINOR>, B<PATCH>, and
B<SHLIB_VERSION>, respectively.

=item $config{prerelease}

If B<PRERELEASE> is assigned a value, $config{prerelease} gets that same value,
prefixed by a dash, otherwise the empty string.

=item $config{build_metadata}

If B<BUILD_METADATA> is assigned a value, $config{build_metadata} gets that same
value, prefixed by a plus sign, otherwise the empty string.

=item $config{release_date}

If B<RELEASE_DATE> is assigned a value, $config{release_date} gets that same
value, otherwise the string C<xx XXX yyyy>.

=item $config{version}

The minimal version number, a string composed from B<MAJOR>, B<MINOR> and
B<PATCH>, separated by periods.  For C<MAJOR=3>, C<MINOR=0> and C<PATCH=0>,
the string will be C<3.0.0>.

=item $config{full_version}

The fully loaded version number, a string composed from $config{version},
$config{prerelease} and $config{build_metadata}.  See   See L</EXAMPLES> for
a few examples.
