Well, why not, but it would only work for "released" sources, not for svn....

Sure, I'm aware of the SVN limitation. But SVN is mainly for developers. Skilled developer can surely write a simple script to keep the file up to date Wink

Something along the lines of

#!/bin/sh
UPPROOT=/path/to/upp
UPPREV=`svn info $UPPROOT | sed -n 's/Revision: \([0-9]*\)/\1/p'`
echo "#ifndef UPP_VERSION
  #define UPP_VERSION $UPPREV
#endif" > $UPPROOT/uppsrc/Core/version.h

Also, the update system in theide can take care of this (as it does now with IDE_VERSION), even when using SVN repository.
