Getting the Zend Framework Version¶
Overview¶
Zend\Version
provides a class constant Zend\Version\Version::VERSION
that contains a string identifying the version
number of your Zend Framework installation. Zend\Version\Version::VERSION
might contain “1.7.4”, for example.
The static method Zend\Version\Version::compareVersion($version)
is based on the PHP function version_compare().
This method returns -1 if the specified version is older than the installed Zend Framework version, 0 if they are
the same and +1 if the specified version is newer than the version of the Zend Framework installation.
Example of the compareVersion() Method¶
1 2 | // returns -1, 0 or 1
$cmp = Zend\Version\Version::compareVersion('2.0.0');
|
The static method Zend\Version\Version::getLatest()
provides the version number of the last stable release available
for download on the site Zend Framework.
Example of the getLatest() Method¶
1 2 | // returns 1.11.0 (or a later version)
echo Zend\Version\Version::getLatest();
