The OSRevision and Protocol Support node attributes have values that are interpreted as version
numbers. A version number is a series of non-negative decimal numbers separated by period (.)
characters. When comparing version numbers, the following rules are used:
• The leftmost numbers in the series are most significant, so "1.0" is greater than "0.1".
• Leading zeroes on the numbers are disregarded, so "003" is equal to "3".
• Two adjacent period characters are interpreted as if they delimited the number zero, so
"1.0.3" is equal to "1..3".
• A beginning period character is interpreted as if preceded by a zero, so ".9" is equal to
"0.9".
• Trailing zero numbers are disregarded, so "1.0.0" is equal to "1"
Environment Variables
Specific environment variables (EVs) available to use for TDEFs. In addition to this list, operating
system environment variables are also available (for Windows systems) to be passed into TDEFs.
In addition to these "automatic" EV's, user-defined environment variables may be set as part of
scripting in the TDEFs.
