In thi - `M` is the major version, representing backwards incompatible changes - `m` is the minor version, indicating backwards compatible changes such as new feature additions - `p` is the patch number, representing internal modifications such as bug-fixes + Usually (following most linux distribution's conventions), shared libraries produced by a project `name` of version `M.m.p` are named `libname.M.m.p`. However, since when accessing shared libraries through the JVM, only the `name` can be specified and no particular version, the convention adopted by flow is to append `M` to the library name and always keep the major version at zero. E.g. `libflow.3.1.2` becomes `libflow3.0.1.2`. |
