val parse_version : string -> version

Parses a string into a version. Fail if the version can not be parsed

val convert : raw_version -> version

Raise Failure if the string cannot be converted

val compose : version -> string

recompose a version string. For all v: equal(v,compose(parse_version v)) = true. There may, however, be small syntactic differences between v and compose(parse_version v)

val compare_version : version -> version -> int

Compare two versions. Raw versions must be converted to be compared

val compare : string -> string -> int
