This project provides a Go programming language wrapper for the LibVersion C library. The LibVersion C library is a powerful tool for working with version numbers and handling version-related tasks in C applications. By creating a Go wrapper, we aim to enable Go developers to utilize the functionality of LibVersion within their Go programs seamlessly.
Before using this Go wrapper, you need to ensure that the LibVersion C library is installed on your system. Instructions for installing the LibVersion C library can be found here.
Make sure to have LibVersion installed in one of the following locations:
.
(current directory)./lib
/usr/local/lib
/usr/lib
/lib
/usr/local/lib64
/usr/lib64
/lib64
~/.local/lib
~/.local/lib64
To install the Go wrapper, you can use go get
:
go get github.com/saenai255/golibversion
Import the golibversion
package into your Go code:
import "github.com/saenai255/golibversion"
Now, you can use various functions provided by the LibVersion C library through the Go wrapper.
version1 := "1.2.3"
version2 := "1.3.0"
// Compare versions
result := libversion.Compare(version1, version2)
if result == -1 {
fmt.Printf("%s is older than %s\n", version1, version2)
} else if result == 1 {
fmt.Printf("%s is newer than %s\n", version1, version2)
} else {
fmt.Printf("%s and %s are the same version\n", version1, version2)
}
// There are also functions for comparing versions with different flags,
// such as: CompareWithFlags
// Perform other version-related operations using the available functions in the wrapper.
// See the documentation or source code for a full list of available functions.
