System:Bootstrap:versionCompare

From Aspen Documentation

Compared two version strings for similarity. This function removes all text and converts hyphens/dashes to decimal points. It then compares each integer separated by a period to it's relative value to the same position in the other version.

For example:

  • 1.0 is greater than 0.9.
  • 1.0.1 is less than 1.1.
  • 1.1 is equal to 1.1.0.

Since 1.0.1
