BDE API Examples (DbiGetSysVersion)
Retrieves the system version information, including the BDE version number, date, and time, and the client interface version number.
Get BDE system version information:
This example is included with Delphi in the BDE32.HLP file.
Example 1: Retrun BDE Major and Minor Version in a String
This example uses the following format: label1.caption := getversioninformation;
function getversioninformation: string;
function DetermineMinorVersion(IntfVer, Month, Day, Year: integer): integer;
begin
Result := -1;
case IntfVer of
3:
begin
if (Month = 12) and (Day = 1) and (Year = 1995) then
Result := 0;
if (Month = 2) and (Day = 4) and (Year = 1996) then
Result := 10;
if (Month = 6) and (Day = 1) and (Year = 1996) then
Result := 11;
if (Month = 8) and (Day = 22) and (Year = 1996) then
Result := 12;
if (Month = 9) and (Day = 19) and (Year = 1996) then
Result := 50;
if (Month = 12) and (Day = 2) and (Year = 1996) then
Result := 51;
end;
4:
begin
if (Month = 3) and (Day = 11) and (Year = 1997) then
Result := 0;
if (Month = 7) and (Day = 16) and (Year = 1997) then
Result := 1;
if (Month = 10) and (Day = 28) and (Year = 1997) then
Result := 50;
if (Month = 11) and (Day = 14) and (Year = 1997) then
Result := 51;
end;
5:
begin
Result := -1;
end;
end;
end;
var
Version: SYSVersion;
Major, Minor: smallint;
Month, Day: word;
Year: smallint;
begin
Result := 'Unknown';
try try
Check(DbiInit(nil));
Check(DbiGetSysVersion(Version));
Check(DbiDateDecode(Version.dateVer, Month, Day, Year));
Major := Version.iVersion div 100;
Minor := DetermineMinorVersion(Major, Month, Day, Year);
if Minor = -1 then
Result := Format('%d.xx (cannot determine minor version)', [Major])
else
if Minor < 10 then
Result := Format('%d.0%d', [Major, Minor])
else
Result := Format('%d.%d', [Major, Minor]);
except
end;
finally
DbiExit;
end;
end;
