NAME ^

lib/Parrot/BuildUtil.pm - Utilities for building Parrot

DESCRIPTION ^

For now, this package contains only one subroutine: parrot_version(). This subroutine is not exported and so must be requested with a fully qualified path.

SUBROUTINES ^

parrot_version()

Determines the current version number for Parrot from the VERSION file and returns it in a context-appropriate manner.

    $parrot_version = Parrot::BuildUtil::parrot_version();
    # $parrot_version is '0.4.11'

    @parrot_version = Parrot::BuildUtil::parrot_version();
    # @parrot_version is (0, 4, 11)
