|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Does <var>version</var> satisfy the <var>version-spec</var>. A generic function.
|
||
|
|
ASDF provides built-in methods for <var>version</var> being a <code>component</code> or <code>string</code>.
|
||
|
|
<var>version-spec</var> should be a string.
|
||
|
|
If it’s a component, its version is extracted as a string before further processing.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>A version string satisfies the version-spec if after parsing,
|
||
|
|
the former is no older than the latter.
|
||
|
|
Therefore <code>"1.9.1"</code>, <code>"1.9.2"</code> and <code>"1.10"</code> all satisfy <code>"1.9.1"</code>,
|
||
|
|
but <code>"1.8.4"</code> or <code>"1.9"</code> do not.
|
||
|
|
For more information about how <code>version-satisfies</code> parses and interprets
|
||
|
|
version strings and specifications,
|
||
|
|
see <a href="The-defsystem-grammar.html#Version-specifiers">Version specifiers</a> and
|
||
|
|
<a href="Common-attributes-of-components.html">Common attributes of components</a>.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Note that in versions of ASDF prior to 3.0.1,
|
||
|
|
including the entire ASDF 1 and ASDF 2 series,
|
||
|
|
<code>version-satisfies</code> would also require that the version and the version-spec
|
||
|
|
have the same major version number (the first integer in the list);
|
||
|
|
if the major version differed, the version would be considered as not matching the spec.
|
||
|
|
But that feature was not documented, therefore presumably not relied upon,
|
||
|
|
whereas it was a nuisance to several users.
|
||
|
|
Starting with ASDF 3.0.1,
|
||
|
|
<code>version-satisfies</code> does not treat the major version number specially,
|
||
|
|
and returns T simply if the first argument designates a version that isn’t older
|
||
|
|
than the one specified as a second argument.
|
||
|
|
If needs be, the <code>(:version ...)</code> syntax for specifying dependencies
|
||
|
|
could be in the future extended to specify an exclusive upper bound for compatible versions
|
||
|
|
as well as an inclusive lower bound.
