Question:
How to obtain version information for ApplicationServer 4.0 and VB Java 4.0?
Running vbver command on many of the executables and libraries shipped with ApplicationServer 4.0 simply prints out that no version info is
available.
Answer:
The only file stamped with version information for IAS is ias.jar. This is the file that is licensed and contains the IAS build version. The files from VisiBroker will contain the version of VisiBroker within IAS.
The files version stamped for VisiBroker are osagent.exe and vbjorb.jar.
ias.jar - contains IAS build version
vbjorb.jar - contains VisiBroker build version
