Obtaining Mahout Version during runtime
Hi all,
I am looking for a possibility to obtain the version of the used Mahout
version.
Background: I am working on a small performance measurement framework
for Mahout. To compare the results between different versions of Mahout
I need the version number of Mahout. Of course I can overhand it as an
parameter to the tests and extract it before from the used Maven
settings. But I would prefere something like Mahout.VERSION.
Bye,
Oliver

Would be great if you'd attach a patch that illustrates your idea.

Mainly the Java API. But the Java API could provide the version
information for the commandline tools.
Should I file a JIRA issue for this?
Actually it should be easy to achive. We could use the Maven version
information and Maven property replacement mechanism.

Good question - I think that may well be related to our towards-1.0-cleanup
activities: At least for the command line script there should be a --version
parameter.
@Oliver does your question refer to the command line tool or did you have a Java
API in mind?
