Current version number of Sirius product

Most Sirius $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. There is no OO equivalent for the $SirVer function, but you can get the same information from the Sirius command.

This function returns the current version number of a particular Sirius product.

The $SirVer function accepts one argument and returns a numeric result that is the current version number of the requested product.

The argument is a string corresponding to one of the following products:

Syntax

<section begin="syntax" />%VER = $SirVer(product) <section end="syntax" />

%VER is set to the current product version number.

This function can be used to ensure that you are running the correct version of the Sirius Mods or of Fast/Unload. For example, the program

IF $SirVer < 603 THEN PRINT 'OBSOLETE SIRIUS FUNCTIONS' STOP END IF

would stop if the Sirius Mods were older than release 6.03.

The default product is SIRMODS, that is, if the argument is missing or is the null string, the version number of the Sirius Mods is returned. If the argument is invalid, 0 is returned. If the argument is FUNLOAD, and the Fast/Unload User Language Interface is not available, 0 is returned.
