Finding out the Version of TIBCO Business Studio Using which a Project was Created

You can find out the version of TIBCO Business Studio using which a project was created. This information is stored in a .version file.

A .version file is created when:

  • A new project is created. The .version file can be seen under Service Descriptors in the Project Explorer.
  • A Java Implementation is generated. The .version file can be seen under META-INF in the Project Explorer.
  • Projects are imported. The .version file can be seen under META-INF in the Project Explorer.
    • If Project > Build Automatically is enabled, the .version file is generated.
    • If Project > Build Automatically is disabled, the .version file is not generated.
  • When you clean a project using the Projects > Clean.
    • Clean projects selected below option
      Note: If the selected SOA project has a reference to a Java project, the .version file is created on the referenced Java project even if the Java project is not selected on the Clean projects view.

    • Clean all projects option

      When this option is selected, it generates the .version file for all SOA projects (and their reference projects) in the workspace that do not have a version file.

Viewing the .version File

  1. In the Project Explorer View, select Customize View. The Available Customizations dialog box appears.

  2. Uncheck .*resources from the list of filters displayed.

  3. Click OK.
  4. Refresh the project. You must refresh each project in Studio to see the .version file.

A .version file is generated in all the cases mentioned above. For example, when a new SOA project is created, the .version file is created under Service Descriptors as follows:
