Package org.springframework.boot

Class SpringBootVersion

java.lang.Object

org.springframework.boot.SpringBootVersion

public final class SpringBootVersion
extends Object

Class that exposes the Spring Boot version. Fetches the Implementation-Version manifest attribute from the jar file via Package.getImplementationVersion(), falling back to locating the jar file that contains this class and reading the Implementation-Version attribute from its manifest.

This class might not be able to determine the Spring Boot version in all environments. Consider using a reflection-based check instead: For example, checking for the presence of a specific Spring Boot method that you intend to call.

Since:

1.3.0
