[jira] [Commented] (MAHOUT-875) Allow to obtain Mahout version information through the Java API

["Frank Scholten (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-875?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13154137#comment-13154137 ] 

Frank Scholten commented on MAHOUT-875:
---------------------------------------

The driver.classes.default.props file (renamed from driver.classes.props by the ant-run plugin) may not be a good location after all since it won't be used if there is a user provided driver.classes.props on the classpath. 

Maybe a 'version' program with a version.props file? This way you can run 'bin/mahout version' and the script does not need to be filtered or modified.

> It would be nice to be able to obtain the used Mahout version through the Java API. This enables users to output the version information for debugging purposes or simple to document which Mahout version is used.
