    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-2184?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16948816#comment-16948816 ] 

Dave Barnes commented on GEODE-2184:
------------------------------------

Contributor [~alberto.bustamante.reyes] offers a good solution that addresses the initial problem by creatively reinterpreting the solution. When I filed the original ticket, my proposed solution was to replace version strings with generic placeholders. Instead, the proposal is to create a variable in the docs config file, config.yml, so the Java version will be kept current.

I like this solution, so have re-titled the ticket to reflect the improvement.

> Examples containing specific version strings, e.g. "Geode 1.0.0-incubating" and "javac 1.8.0_92" must be updated with every doc release or they go out of date. In most cases, the specific numbers are not meaningful to the example. Updating with every related revision requires considerable, usually unnecessary, effort. Replace such version strings with generic placeholders.
