| separated by <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">.</span></code> and possibly followed by <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-</span></code> and other information. |
| The first two components represent the feature level and the third |
| component represents either a bug-fix level or development date.</p> |
| <p>Release versions and release candidate versions of CMake use the format:</p> |
| <div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><major>.<minor>.<patch>[-rc<n>] |
| </pre></div> |
| </div> |
| <p>where the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre"><patch></span></code> component is less than <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">20000000</span></code>. Development |

| </div> |
| <p>where the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre"><date></span></code> component is of format <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CCYYMMDD</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre"><id></span></code> |
| may contain arbitrary text. This represents development as of a |

| <div class="admonition note"> |
| <p class="admonition-title">Note</p> |
| <p>CMake versions 2.8.2 through 2.8.12 used three components for the |
| feature level. Release versions represented the bug-fix level in a |
| fourth component, i.e. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre"><major>.<minor>.<patch>[.<tweak>][-rc<n>]</span></code>. |
| Development versions represented the development date in the fourth |
| component, i.e. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre"><major>.<minor>.<patch>.<date>[-<id>]</span></code>.</p> |
| <p>CMake versions prior to 2.8.2 used three components for the |
| feature level and had no bug-fix component. Release versions |
| used an even-valued second component, i.e. |
| <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre"><major>.<even-minor>.<patch>[-rc<n>]</span></code>. Development versions |
| used an odd-valued second component with the development date as |
| the third component, i.e. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre"><major>.<odd-minor>.<date></span></code>.</p> |
| <p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CMAKE_VERSION</span></code> variable is defined by CMake 2.6.3 and higher. |
| Earlier versions defined only the individual component variables.</p> |
