Re: Modules and version numbers.

[Abigail]

Well the best way of solving this problem is to indicate to your boss his/her requirement is nonsense and that the version number itself doesn't indicate anything.

But if that doesn't work, fix stupid requirements with stupid solutions. Write a dummy module like:

    package XML::Parser::PerlSAX::toadi;
    use XML::Parser::PerlSAX;
    
    use vars '$Version';
    
    # Leave next 2 lines out if XML::Parser::PerlSAX doesn't
    # use Exporter.
    use Exporter;  
    @ISA = 'Exporter';
 
    $VERSION = 1.1;

Alternatively, assuming XML::Parser::PerlSAX is free software, copy it, and change the version number in your copy.
