- * __repr__ generates Python code to recreate the version number instance
- * _cmp compares the current instance with either another instance

- numbers are equal, then one with a pre-release tag will always
- be deemed earlier (lesser) than one without.

- # The rules according to Greg Stein:
- # 1) a version number has 1 or more numbers separated by a period or by
- # sequences of letters. If only periods, then these are compared
- # left-to-right to determine an ordering.
- # 2) sequences of letters are part of the tuple for comparison and are
- # compared lexicographically
- # 3) recognize the numeric components may have leading zeroes
- #
- # The LooseVersion class below implements these rules: a version number
- # string is split up into a tuple of integer and string components, and
- # comparison is a simple tuple comparison. This means that version
- # numbers behave in a predictable and obvious way, but a way that might
- # not necessarily be how people *want* version numbers to behave. There
- # wouldn't be a problem if people could stick to purely numeric version
- # numbers: just split on period and compare the numbers as tuples.
- # However, people insist on putting letters into their version numbers;
- # the most common purpose seems to be:
- # - indicating a "pre-release" version
- # ('alpha', 'beta', 'a', 'b', 'pre', 'p')
- # - indicating a post-release patch ('p', 'pl', 'patch')
- # but of course this can't cover all version number schemes, and there's
- # no way to know what a programmer means without asking him.
- #
- # The problem is what to do with letters (and other non-numeric
- # characters) in a version number. The current implementation does the
- # obvious and predictable thing: keep them as strings and compare
- # lexically within a tuple comparison. This has the desired effect if
- # an appended letter sequence implies something "post-release":
- # eg. "0.99" < "0.99pl14" < "1.0", and "5.001" < "5.001m" < "5.002".
- #
- # However, if letters in a version number imply a pre-release version,
- # the "obvious" thing isn't correct. Eg. you would expect that
- # "1.5.1" < "1.5.2a2" < "1.5.2", but under the tuple/lexical comparison
- # implemented here, this just isn't so.
- #
- # Two possible solutions come to mind. The first is to tie the
- # comparison algorithm to a particular set of semantic rules, as has
- # been done in the StrictVersion class above. This works great as long
- # as everyone can go along with bondage and discipline. Hopefully a
- # (large) subset of Python module programmers will agree that the
- # particular flavour of bondage and discipline provided by StrictVersion
- # provides enough benefit to be worth using, and will submit their
- # version numbering scheme to its domination. The free-thinking
- # anarchists in the lot will never give in, though, and something needs
- # to be done to accommodate them.
- #
- # Perhaps a "moderately strict" version class could be implemented that
- # lets almost anything slide (syntactically), and makes some heuristic
- # assumptions about non-digits in version number strings. This could
- # sink into special-case-hell, though; if I was as talented and
- # idiosyncratic as Larry Wall, I'd go ahead and implement a class that
- # somehow knows that "1.2.1" < "1.2.2a2" < "1.2.2" < "1.2.2pl3", and is
- # just as happy dealing with things like "2g6" and "1.13++". I don't
- # think I'm smart enough to do it right though.
- #
- # In any case, I've coded the test suite for this module (see
- # ../test/test_version.py) specifically to fail on things like comparing
- # "1.2a2" and "1.2". That's not because the *code* is doing anything
- # wrong, it's because the simple, obvious design doesn't match my
- # complicated, hairy expectations for real-world version numbers. It
- # would be a snap to fix the test suite to say, "Yep, LooseVersion does
- # the Right Thing" (ie. the code matches the conception). But I'd rather
- # have a conception that matches common notions about version numbers.
