VpeGetVersion

[frankena]

Hi,

I'm using VPE 7.0 ddl version.

I want to check which version of VPE my program is using. Therefor I check the value of VpeGetVersion. This is what I get:

VpeGetVersion: 1792
VpeGetReleaseNumber: 0
VpeGetBuildNumber: 7731

What should I do to get the proper versionnumber of VPE?

Regards,

Arnold

It is written in the documentation that VpeGetVersion() returns the major version number in the hi-byte and the minor version number in the lo-byte.

To extract the hi-byte and lo-byte, you can use the following code (C/C++):
int version = VpeGetVersion();
int ver_major = version >> 8;
int ver_minor = version & 0xff;

For other programming languages, you can use the div (division) and mod (modulo) operators:
int version = VpeGetVersion();
int ver_major = version div 256;
int ver_minor = version mod 256;

For v7.0, ver_major is 7 and ver_minor is 0.
