Hi Cathy Mucci,
The Version Command output should be an invariant. I don't
think the "output" of the version command is an interface that
you can rely on.
So, it always better to rely on the "Version" class that we
have exposed. In your GlassFish installation, take a look at:
appserv-ext.jar:
com.sun.appserv.server.util.Version class. At the moment, you'll
need to do a javap on that to find out its methods.
This class exposes various methods to get things like: full-version
(which asadmin displays), major version, minor version, build id etc.
I think you should rely on it.
Regards,
Kedar
