[ome-devel] Python API - Server version check

[Luca Lianas]

Thanks Ola!
I used the omero_version variable and the configService to perform a check
between client and server versions (as you can see in the attached python
example) and it worked fine.
I also added a property in the components/antlib/resources/global.xml file
like this

* <!--*
*    OMERO.biobank properties*
* -->*
* <property name="biobank.version" value="0.6-beta"/>*

and updated the build.xml file like this

*    <target name="version">*
*
*
*        <gitdescribe select="\2\3\5\6">*
*        </gitdescribe>*
*
<echo>${version.describe}-ice${versions.ice_lib}-biobank${biobank.version}</echo>
*
*    </target>*

in order to apply the biobank tag we needed.

The results is

*luca at tensa-zangetsu:/opt/omero_4.4.8$ ./build.py version*
*Buildfile: /opt/omero_4.4.8/build.xml*
*
*
*version:*
*4.4.8-dirty-ice34-biobank0.6-beta*
*
*
*BUILD SUCCESSFUL*
*Total time: 0 seconds*

Are these the right files that I need to update or is it better to make
these changes somewhere else?

Thanks

Luca
