Cairo has a three-part version number scheme. In this scheme, we use even vs. odd numbers to distinguish fixed points in the software vs. in-progress development, (such as from git instead of a tar file, or as a "snapshot" tar file as opposed to a "release" tar file).
_____ Major. Always 1, until we invent a new scheme. / ___ Minor. Even/Odd = Release/Snapshot (tar files) or Branch/Head (git) | / _ Micro. Even/Odd = Tar-file/git | | / 1.0.0
Here are a few examples of versions that one might see.
Releases -------- 1.0.0 - A major release 1.0.2 - A subsequent maintenance release 1.2.0 - Another major release Snapshots --------- 1.1.2 - A snapshot (working toward the 1.2.0 release) In-progress development (eg. from git) -------------------------------------- 1.0.1 - Development on a maintenance branch (toward 1.0.2 release) 1.1.1 - Development on head (toward 1.1.2 snapshot and 1.2.0 release)

#define CAIRO_VERSION_ENCODE(major, minor, micro)
This macro encodes the given cairo version into an integer. The numbers
returned by CAIRO_VERSION
and cairo_version()
are encoded using this macro.
Two encoded version numbers can be compared as integers. The encoding ensures
that later versions compare greater than earlier versions.

#define CAIRO_VERSION_STRINGIZE(major, minor, micro)
This macro encodes the given cairo version into an string. The numbers
returned by CAIRO_VERSION_STRING
and cairo_version_string()
are encoded using this macro.
The parameters to this macro must expand to numerical literals.

int
cairo_version (void
);
Returns the version of the cairo library encoded in a single
integer as per CAIRO_VERSION_ENCODE
. The encoding ensures that
later versions compare greater than earlier versions.
A run-time comparison to check that cairo's version is greater than or equal to version X.Y.Z could be performed as follows:
1 |
if (cairo_version() >= CAIRO_VERSION_ENCODE(X,Y,Z)) {...} |

equivalents CAIRO_VERSION
and CAIRO_VERSION_STRING

const char *
cairo_version_string (void
);
Returns the version of the cairo library as a human-readable string of the form "X.Y.Z".

CAIRO_VERSION_STRING
and CAIRO_VERSION
