public final class Version

extends java.lang.Object

Class Version is used to creat version objects that contain release information, such as MAJOR, MINOR, BUILD, DATE, and KIND. Version objects can also be created with an expiration date. Any attempt to create an instance of the version object after the expiration date will fail and result in a call to System.exit(). Creating the version object in the period 0 to 15 days before expiration will result in a warning message written by System.out.println(). Values of a version object cannot be altered once it has been created.
