# ts\_libversion(3)

get version information on the currently running tslib

## NAME

ts\_libversion - get version information on the currently running tslib

## SYNOPSIS

```
#include <tslib.h>

struct ts_lib_version_data *ts_libversion();

```

## DESCRIPTION

**ts\_libversion**() This function returns a pointer to a static copy of the version info struct:

```
struct ts_lib_version_data {
        const char      *package_version;
        int             version_num;
        unsigned int    features;
};
```

**package\_version** is just the string containing the tarball release number, e.g. "1.10".

**version\_num** is a 24 bit number created like this: \<8 bits major number\> \| \<8 bits minor number\> \| \<8 bits patch number\> of the library libts. Version 0.7.1 is therefore returned as 0x000701.

**features** can have one or more bits set. The currently defined bits are:

**TSLIB\_VERSION\_MT** tslib filters support multitouch ts\_read\_mt() and there is at least one raw access module supporting it (currently evdev input) **TSLIB\_VERSION\_OPEN\_RESTRICTED** ts\_open\_restricted and ts\_close\_restricted function pointers are available to implement **TSLIB\_VERSION\_EVENTPATH** ts\_get\_eventpath() is available since tslib can auto-detect a device **TSLIB\_VERSION\_VERSION** simple tslib\_version() and ts\_print\_ascii\_logo() are available

## RETURN VALUE

This function returns a pointer to a static copy of the version info struct.
