How would one make a macro out of this? – Rits Dec 04 '10 at 23:51

#define APP_VERSION [[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:(NSString*)kCFBundleVersionKey]; – powerj1984 Jul 18 '13 at 14:33

no semicolon at the end of the macro. and it should probably be called BUNDLE_VERSION. – Moe Salih Aug 17 '13 at 04:55

Here are some macros:

#define BUNDLE_VERSION_EQUAL_TO(v)                  ([[[NSBundle mainBundle]     objectForInfoDictionaryKey:(NSString*) kCFBundleVersionKey] compare:v  options:NSNumericSearch] == NSOrderedSame)
#define BUNDLE_VERSION_GREATER_THAN(v)              ([[[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:(NSString*) kCFBundleVersionKey] compare:v options:NSNumericSearch] == NSOrderedDescending)
#define BUNDLE_VERSION_GREATER_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO(v)  ([[[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:(NSString*) kCFBundleVersionKey] compare:v options:NSNumericSearch] != NSOrderedAscending)
#define BUNDLE_VERSION_LESS_THAN(v)                 ([[[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:(NSString*) kCFBundleVersionKey]  compare:v options:NSNumericSearch] == NSOrderedAscending)
#define BUNDLE_VERSION_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO(v)     ([[[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:(NSString*) kCFBundleVersionKey] compare:v options:NSNumericSearch] != NSOrderedDescending)
