NAME

6       comedi_get_version_code - Comedi version code
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <comedilib.h>
10
11       int comedi_get_version_code (comedi_t * device);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       Returns  the  Comedi kernel module version code.  A valid Comedi device
15       referenced by the parameter device is necessary to communicate with the
16       kernel module.  On error, -1 is returned.
17
18       The  version code is encoded as a bitfield of three 8-bit numbers.  For
19       example, 0x00073d is the version code for version 0.7.61.
20
21       This function is of limited usefulness.  A typical  mis-application  of
22       this  function  is  to use it to determine if a certain feature is sup‐
23       ported.  If the application needs to know of the existence of a partic‐
24       ular  feature,  an existence test function should be written and put in
25       the Comedilib source.
