DESCRIPTION:

VersionCheck is a ruby class provides tests against a packages version so we can determine if our code is running in the version we want or is running on a version later than the version we need.

Special initializer, VersionCheck.rubyversion, sets up VersionCheck instance we can use to check against current Ruby major,minor,update and patch level.

FEATURES/PROBLEMS:

SYNOPSIS:

require 'rubygems'
require 'versioncheck'
vc = VersionCheck.new(major,minor,update,build)

#to conditionally run code based on having exactly the version x,y
if vc.have_version?(x,y)
 ...
end

#to conditionally run code based on having at least the given version x,y
if vc.have_at_least_version?(x,y)
 ...
end

rb_vc = VersionCheck.rubyversion #Equivalent to VersionCheck.new with RubyVersion and patchlevel  as params
#Check the ruby version is at least version 1.9
if rb_vc.have_at_least_version?("1.9") 
 ...
end

#Check the ruby version is at least version 1.8.6
if rb_vc.have_at_least_version?("1.8.6") 
 ...
end
