Add Revision Number to the Help-About dialog of QuantDesk_UI #25

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Make the revision number and build time stamp appear in the Help-About dialog. 

This will require modifications
1) of the Ant build.xml: it will have to 
    * create a properties file with these values
    * put the properties file with the time stamp and the revision number into the bundle (application JAR-file);
2) of the application code 
    * it will have to read these values from a resource file inside the application's JAR-file and display in the Help-About dialog.

This feature will be extremely valuable when users (or testers) will start to 
report bugs: we'll be able to instruct them to always add the revision number 
to the bug report.
