RGS version description
1. Major – A major release contains sufficient changes such that interoperability with the prior
primary release is not guaranteed. For example, Sender version 5.4.0 is not guaranteed to
interoperate with Receiver version 4.2.0. A major release introduces significant new RGS features
and functionality. They will also include (roll up) the changes in any prior minor and patch
releases.
2. Minor – A minor release is generated for minor features, a security issue, or for a major defect in
a feature. A minor release is indicated by this number being non-zero. Therefore, RGS 5.4 is a
minor release.
3. Patch – A patch release is generated for issues such as bug fixes and security issues. A patch
release is indicated by this number being non-zero. Therefore, RGS 5.4.0 is not a patch release.
RGS 5.4.5 would be a patch release.
NOTE: Each patch release is a complete release of the entire RGS product, regardless of what
components have changed. For example, if a patch release is needed to make an RGS Sender security
fix available, the entire RGS product (including both the RGS Sender and Receiver) would be included
in the patch release.
