Previous version number format
This document refers to a previous version number format used in OutSystems 10 releases and in older versions of OutSystems 11.
For the current version number format, check How are OutSystems Platform versions numbered?
The previous version number format consisted of a sequence of four numbers, separated by a period, and assigned in ascending order.
This version numbering schema was as follows:
Major first digit.Major second digit. [Feature set][Patch set].[Hotfix or Alpha/Beta]
(M.n.ffpp.xyy)
[Major first digit].[Major second digit]
M.n
These two digits identify the Major version. A new Major version is defined in your Subscription Agreement as an “Upgrade” or a “New Software Version”.
[Feature set][Patch set]
[ff][pp]
ff [01-99] - it signals that a new feature set has been delivered. It is incremented when a new feature set is delivered along with defect fixes.
pp [00-99] - it is reserved for patch sets. It is incremented when a new patch set includes only defect fixes, and no changes to the feature set.
[Hotfix or Alpha/Beta]
M.n.ffpp.xyy
xyy = 0 - Generally Available version
xyy [1-99] - Hot fix over a Generally Available version
xyy [100-999] - Alpha or Beta release
Examples
9.1.100.0 reads as Major version 9.1, feature set 1, patch set 0
9.1.101.4 reads as Major version 9.1, feature set 1, patch set 1, hotfix 4
9.1.101.302 reads as Major version 9.1, feature set 1, patch set 1, beta 302
