Wuh, using these kind of variables are evil. I suggested back then to use the _help hook with the '#version' (or something alike) $section to grab the version, so this should work:
function somemodule_help($section) { switch($section) { case '#version': return '$Revision: 1.6 $';
And this will be done by CVS I hope? Similar to what CVS does now: // $Id: textile.module,v 1.14.2.1 2004/09/23 15:45:55 jhriggs Exp $ ?
Yes, the intention is that CVS will replace it. We could also have some wrapper function used right there, so that real version numbers (erm, actually strings) are returned: return drupal_parse_revision('$Revision: 1.6 $'); And so function drupal_parse_revision($string) { $parts = explode(" ", $string); return $parts[1]; } Goba
