GUI.GetVersionPart of GUI module

Syntax   GUI.GetVersion : int

Description   Returns the current version of the GUI Procedure Library. Because the GUI Procedure Library is expected to grow, new versions will probably be made available at our web site http://www.holtsoft.com/turing. If you wish to use features that do not appear in earlier versions of the library, you can have your program check that the current available version meets the programs needs. GUI.GetVersion returns an integer from 100 - 999 and is read as 1.00 to 9.99.

Example   The following program fragment immediately exits if OOT does not support version 1.1 of the GUI Procedure Library

        import GUI in "%oot/lib/GUI"
        if GUI.GetVersion < 110 then
            put "You must update to at least version 1.1 of the"
            put "GUI Procedure Library to use this program."
            return
        end if
Details   In version 1.00 (shipped with MacOOT 1.5), GUI.GetVersion did not exist.

Status   Exported qualified.

This means that you can only call the function by calling GUI.GetVersion, not by calling GetVersion.
