Get next object version number

Every developer has sometimes the issue: What is my next version number for the new object ? If there is a couple of developers working in the some database, you’ll need a kind of a version control.

I’ve developed a page, which calculates the next version number for a defined version prefix. The version sytax is: <PREFIX><Main No.>.<2-digit Sub No.>.

Let’s start with a list of pages with different version list, version ARCH1.00 to ARCH1.06. It does not matter, if the version list of an object contains more than one value.

After running the page set the version prefix, here ARCH, and push action “Get next version”. We get then the new version: ARCH1.07.

You can download the page here.
