version number in source ASM

[ca...@curdes.com]

I'm trying to put the version number into my source code, but it's .asm not c.  I have found the instructions for c, obviously, but nothing for asm. Any ideas?

You have many options.  The results are similar for all langes

In the past, I have used Python and PHP.  For example, I would have a file
called version.py.php

That contained

#!/usr/env/bin python
''' Version information for XXX application'''

__author__ = "Me"
__version__ = "<?php exec('svnversion -n')?>"


Then I run
php version.py.php > version.py

in my makefile

Then, I changed it to just have a Makefile generate it.  It works on WIndows
also if you have a good version of make (an some other unix like utils)

Or, you can use substitute-type command.  TortoiseSVN comes with one that
replaces magic variables.

You could write a batch / shell script to generate the file

#!/bin/sh
echo "SOME ASM VARIABLE DEFINITIONS "$(svnversion) > version.a

or, in Windows
: I can do it, but the bizarre syntax of Windows Batch file eludes me now.

If you show us an example of what you want and some details, it might prove
beneficial
