Switching to 9.10 from 9.3

[elangley]

I have a Warning: The 9.3-STABLE Train is now in Maintenance Mode. No new features or non-essential changes will be made. Please switch to the 9.10-STABLE train for active support.

My question is 9.10 is more recent than 9.3? Is the nomenclature correct?

Yup, since 10 is greater than 3.

 

[elangley]

Hmm, yes, while 10 is greater than 3, 9.10 is not greater than 9.3. Am I missing something?

 

[dlavigne]

Are you mentally inserting an extra dot between the 1 and the 0? Otherwise, 9.10 should be 7 higher than 9.3... (and I know, the naming sucks).

 

[elangley]

Yes, I guess I am. So 9.10.0 is newer than 9.3.0...

Yes think of it this way:

9.3 = Main version 9 Subversion 3

9.10= Main version 9 Subversion 10

if there was to be something like 9.10.1 it would be

Main version 9 Subversion 10 Tertiary version 1

After a dot it is a separation of fields and the number increase = a later version. The more dots the more fields to compare and without a dot it is considered a zero.
