You can print out the version number of the Deployment Template from the command line.
The runcommand script has a --version flag that prints the version number of the Deployment Template and exits. The command actually prints the version number of the EAC Development Toolkit.
Displaying the version is important for troubleshooting purposes.
To display the version of the Deployment Template:
C:\Endeca\Apps\control>runcommand --version
EAC Toolkit: 3.1.734 - 2009-05-18T08:11:11-0400
The third number ("734" in the example) is the build number, followed by the build date/time.
