Encapsulates a SIF version number.
The Adk uses instances of SifVersion rather than strings to identify
versions of SIF. Typically you do not need to obtain a SifVersion instance
directly except for when initializing the class framework with the
Adk.initialize method. Rather, classes for which SIF version is
a property, such as SifDataObject and Query, provide a getSIFVersion
method to obtain the version associated with an object.

Members| All Members | Methods | Properties | Fields | ||
| Icon | Member | Description |
|---|---|---|
 | CompareTo(Object) | Compare this version to another |
 | GetLatest(Int32) |
Returns the latest SIFVersion supported by the ADK for the major version
number of SIF specified. For example, passing the value 1 returns
SifVersion.15r1 |
 | GreaterThan(SifVersion, SifVersion) | |
| GreaterThanOrEqual(SifVersion, SifVersion) | |
 | LATEST | Identifies the latest SIF Specification supported by the SIFWorks Adk |
| LessThan(SifVersion, SifVersion) | |
| LessThanOrEqual(SifVersion, SifVersion) | |
 | Major | Gets the major version number |
| Minor | Gets the minor version number |
| Parse(String) | Parse a SifVersion from a string |
| ParseXmlns(String) | Parse a SifVersion from a xmlns attribute value
If the xmlns attribute is in the form "http://www.sifinfo.org/v1.0r1/messages",
the version identified by the namespace is returned (e.g. "1.0r1"). If the
xmlns attribute is in the form "http://www.sifinfo.org/infrastructure/1.x",
the latest version of SIF identified by the major version number is
returned.
|
| Revision | Gets the revision number |
| SIF11 | Identifies the SIF 1.1 Specification |
| SIF15r1 | Identifies the SIF 1.5r1 Specification |
| SIF20 | Identifies the SIF 2.0 Specification |
| SIF20r1 | Identifies the SIF 2.0r1 Specification |
| SIF21 | Identifies the SIF 2.0 Specification |
| ToString()() | Gets the string representation of the version (Overrides Object.ToString()().) |
| ToSymbol()() | Gets the string representation of the version using an underscore instead
of a period as the delimiter
|
| Xmlns | Get the SIF namespace for this version of the specification.
