DESCRIPTION
The libscca_get_version() function is used to retrieve the library version.

RETURN VALUES
Most of the functions return NULL or -1 on error, dependent on the return type. For the actual return values see "libscca.h".

ENVIRONMENT
None

FILES
None

NOTES
libscca can be compiled with wide character support (wchar_t).

To compile libscca with wide character support use: ./configure --enable-wide-character-type=yes or define: _UNICODE or UNICODE during compilation.

LIBSCCA_WIDE_CHARACTER_TYPE in libscca/features.h can be used to determine if libscca was compiled with wide character support.
