To find out what release of IRIS Performer is currently installed
on the system do:
% versions | grep performer
and you will see a list of all IRIS Performer subsystems that are
currently installed. Note that you might see execution
environments and compatibility DSOs for older releases of IRIS
Performer -- this is what allows you to run any IRIS Performer
executable, regardless of the development release you are currently
using.
To find out which version a given IRIS Performer DSO library is do:
% elfdump -L lib.so | fgrep IVERSION
and you will see the DSO version number of the library. Note: DSO
version numbers are NOT the same as IRIS Performer product release
numbers. DSO numbers are X.Y.Z where the X must change with each
change in binary compatibility, where the Y changes to signify a
binary compatible version, and the .Z is an additional tag. The
mapping of IRIS Performer releases to DSO numbers is:
IRIS Performer release DSO lib version
-------------------------------------------
1.0 sgi1.0
2.0 sgi2.0
2.0.1 sgi2.1
2.0.2 sgi2.2
2.0.3 sgi2.3
2.0.4 sgi2.4
2.1 sgi3.0
2.1.1 sgi3.1
2.1.2 sgi3.2
Each release of IRIS Performer includes the versioned DSO libraries
from previous releases for each binary compatible group. Upon
program startup, rld will find the proper version of the IRIS
Performer library for the current executable. These DSOs are
installed under /usr/lib/ and /usr/lib/Performer.
ex:
/usr/lib/libpf_ogl.so.2
/usr/lib/libpf_ogl.so.3
/usr/lib/libpf_ogl.so.4
% elfdump -L /usr/lib/libpf_ogl.so.2 | fgrep IVERSION
[34] IVERSION sgi2.4
To find out which version a dynamically linked IRIS Performer
executable was made with do:
% elfdump -L progname
and you will see a list of the DSOs required by the program and
their DSO version number.
