ELFTC_VERSION(3)       FreeBSD Library Functions Manual       ELFTC_VERSION(3)

NAME
     elftc_version - return a project-wide version identifier string

LIBRARY
     library "libelftc"

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libelftc.h>

     const char *
     elftc_version(void);

DESCRIPTION
     Function elftc_version() returns a project-wide identifier string that
     encodes the source revision of the project source tree.

     The returned identifier has four space-separated fields:

     Project-Name        This is always "elftoolchain".

     Project-Branch      The branch name for the project source tree.

     Build-OS            The operating system that the tool chain was compiled
                         for.

     Version-Number      A tree-wide version number extracted from the version
                         control system in use.

RETURN VALUES
     Function elftc_program_version() returns a pointer to an internal
     character buffer.

EXAMPLES
     To retrieve and print the current toolchain version identifier, use:

           #include <sys/types.h>
           #include <libelftc.h>

           (void) printf("%s\n", elftc_version());

     On the HEAD branch of the project's sources, when checked out using
     Subversion and compiled on a NetBSD host, this would print:
           "elftoolchain HEAD NetBSD svn:REVINFO"
     where REVINFO would be the current revision information for the project
     source tree.

ERRORS
     Function elftc_program_version() always succeeds.
